CVE-2024-13350

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The SearchIQ – The Search Solution plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 4.7

Description The issue arises from insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes in the siq searchbox shortcode. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages, which will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 4.7, consider disabling the siq searchbox shortcode until a patch is available to prevent exploitation. Restrict access to pages that utilize this shortcode to minimize the risk of arbitrary script execution.
