CVE-2024-11456: Run Contests, Raffles, and Giveaways with ContestsWP <= 2.0.3 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting

First published: Thu Nov 21 2024(Updated: )

The Run Contests, Raffles, and Giveaways with ContestsWP plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting due to the use of add_query_arg without appropriate escaping on the URL in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.3. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
