CVE-2024-3635 is a newly disclosed vulnerability affecting the Post Grid WordPress plugin before version 7.5.0. This issue allows high privilege users, including Editors and above, to execute Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks. The vulnerability occurs due to insufficient sanitization and escaping of Grid settings, which can be exploited even when the unfiltered_html capability is disabled in multisite setups.

Upgrading to the latest plugin version is recommended to mitigate this risk.
