WordPress · Eventon · CVE-2024-6910
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
EventON WordPress plugin versions prior to 2.2.17
**Description**
The issue allows high privilege users, such as admins, to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks by injecting malicious scripts, even when unfiltered html is disallowed. This is due to the plugin not sanitizing and escaping some of its settings.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 2.2.17, upgrade the affected plugin immediately to protect your site. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the plugin's settings handler to minimize the risk of exploitation.
