Vulnerability CVE-2024-3167
Published: 2024-04-09

Description:
The Ocean Extra plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ??twitter_username?? parameter in versions up to, and including, 2.2.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
