Summary

CVE-2024-13462 is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting the WP Wiki Tooltip plugin for WordPress. The issue lies in the plugin's 'wiki' shortcode, which fails to properly sanitize and escape user-supplied attributes, allowing authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts. These scripts will execute whenever an injected page is accessed, resulting in potential security risks and unintended functionality for unsuspecting users. Versions of the plugin up to, and including, 2.0.2 are vulnerable to this exploit.
