CVE-2024-11183

Summary

CVE-2024-11183 is a vulnerability affecting the Simple Side Tab WordPress plugin before version 2.2.0. Despite the disallowing of the unfiltered_html capability in some setups, this issue fails to sanitize and escape certain settings. Consequently, high privilege users like administrators can execute Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks. This can potentially lead to unauthorized access or data manipulation within WordPress websites. Users are strongly advised to update the plugin to the latest version to mitigate this risk.
