CVE-2024-12813

Summary

CVE-2024-12813 is a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting the Open Hours plugin for WordPress. The flaw, present in all versions up to 1.0.9, stems from insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes within the 'open-hours-current-status' shortcode. This enables authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access or higher, to inject malicious scripts into pages. Upon access, these scripts will execute, potentially leading to unintended actions or information disclosure.
