CVE-2024-12047

CVSS v3.1

6.1

Medium

VectorAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WP Compress – Instant Performance & Speed Optimization plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 6.30.03
Description The issue is related to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the custom server parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 6.30.03, consider disabling the custom server parameter until a patch is available to prevent exploitation. Restrict access to areas of the plugin where this parameter is used to minimize the risk of Reflected Cross-Site Scripting attacks. Avoid using the custom server parameter in affected areas until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
