CVE CVE-2024-9060

Researcher Francesco Carlucci
Description

The AVIF & SVG Uploader plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via SVG File uploads in version 1.1.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for 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. CVE-2024-9238 appears to be a duplicate of this issue.
