CVE-2024-37308

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Cooked Pro recipe plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.7.15.4

Description The issue is related to Persistent Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via the recipe settings[post title] parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses a compromised page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.7.15.4, update to version 1.8.0, which includes the patch for this issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the recipe settings[post title] parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation.
