CVE-2024-10793

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WP Activity Log plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 5.2.1

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the user id parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever an administrative user accesses an injected page. The vulnerability can be exploited through the user id parameter, for example, in the API endpoint '/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php' with the action 'destroy-sessions'.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 5.2.1, update to a version that includes the fix for this issue to prevent exploitation. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the user id parameter in the affected API endpoint until a patch is available. Avoid using the user id parameter in the affected API endpoint until the issue is resolved.
