Details
Summary
CVE-2024-3285 is a vulnerability found in the Slider, Gallery, and Carousel by MetaSlider – Responsive WordPress Slideshows plugin for WordPress. This vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 3.70.0 of the plugin. The vulnerability allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages using the 'metaslider' shortcode. Insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes are responsible for this vulnerability. The potential danger lies in the ability of attackers to execute these injected scripts whenever a user accesses an affected page. Remediation for this vulnerability involves updating the plugin to a version beyond 3.70.0, which addresses the issue of insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.
