CVE-2024-13657
The Store Locator Widget plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'storelocatorwidget' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2025r1 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.
CVSS
- Version: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N
- Base score: 6.4
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.33%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 24
- Score date: 10/5/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).

Esto permite que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel de colaborador y superior, inyecten secuencias de comandos web arbitrarias en páginas que se ejecutarán cada vez que un usuario acceda a una página inyectada."
