CVE-2024-2513: Input Validation

First published: Tue Apr 09 2024(Updated: )

The WP Chat App plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'imageAlt' block attribute in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes.
