CVE-2024-8617

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Quiz Maker versions prior to 6.5.9.9

Description: The issue allows high-privilege users, such as admins, to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks. This is possible because the plugin does not properly sanitize and escape some of its settings. The attack can occur even when the unfiltered html capability is disallowed, for example, in a multisite setup.

Recommendations: For versions prior to 6.5.9.9, update to version 6.5.9.9 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the vulnerable settings to minimize the risk of exploitation.
