CVE-2024-11438: JBURLEIGH1 Streamweasels Online Status Bar

Medium severity, CVSS 6.4. EPSS: 0.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The StreamWeasels Online Status Bar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'sw-status-bar' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
