WordPress · The Photo Gallery · CVE-2024-10545
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
The Photo Gallery, Sliders, Proofing and WordPress plugin versions prior to 3.59.9
**Description**
The issue concerns the Photo Gallery, Sliders, Proofing and WordPress plugin, where some of its image settings are not properly sanitized and escaped. This could allow high-privilege users, such as administrators, to perform stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks, even when the unfiltered html capability is disallowed, for example, in a multisite setup.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 3.59.9, update to version 3.59.9 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the image settings to minimize the risk of exploitation. Additionally, restrict the use of the `unfiltered html` capability to prevent stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks.
