CVE-2024-13112Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Administrator-session script execution via unescaped parameter

Published Jan 31, 2025 · Updated Mar 13, 2025

Reflected cross-site scripting in WP MediaTagger 4.1.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to run scripts in an administrator's browser. WPScan reports that an unspecified request parameter is returned in a page without sanitization or output escaping; no public source names the parameter or code locus. Exploitation requires a high-privilege user to follow an attacker-controlled request, after which the script can act within that user's WordPress session.
