CVE-2024-4092Slider Revolution <= 6.7.7 - Authenticated (Author+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via htmltag Parameter
Medium 6.4
In plain English
A medium-severity cross-site scripting in Slider Revolution from Revolution Slider. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.4% (higher than 37% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
The Slider Revolution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘htmltag’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 6.7.7 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. By default, this can only be exploited by administrators, but the ability to use and configure Slider Revolution can be extended to authors.
