Summary

CVE-2024-12339 is a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting the Digihood HTML Sitemap plugin for WordPress. Versions up to and including 3.1.1 are susceptible to this issue. The vulnerability arises due to inadequate input sanitization and output escaping, enabling unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious web scripts. Successful exploitation relies on the user being tricked into performing an action, such as clicking on a malicious link, which could potentially lead to unintended execution of the attacker's code on the victim's browser. Users are strongly encouraged to update the plugin to the latest version to mitigate this risk.
