CVE-2024-9853

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions ID-SK Toolkit plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.7.2

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via SVG File uploads due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows authenticated attackers with Author-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the SVG file.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.7.2, update to a version that addresses the insufficient input sanitization and output escaping issue to prevent Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting SVG file uploads to trusted users or disabling the SVG upload feature until a patch is available.
