CVE-2024-29110
CVE-2024-29110 is a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Tablesome plugin for WordPress. This reflected XSS flaw allows attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages. Specifically, versions up to and including 1.0.27 of the Table & Contact Form 7 Database – Tablesome plugin are affected.
Despite the low SVRS score of 30, indicating a lower immediate threat level compared to vulnerabilities with scores above 80, CVE-2024-29110 should not be ignored. While not immediately critical based on the SVRS, the presence of reflected XSS means attackers could potentially execute arbitrary JavaScript in a user's browser. This can lead to session hijacking, defacement, or redirection to malicious sites. Users of the Tablesome plugin should update to a patched version as soon as possible to mitigate this security risk. The 'In The Wild' tag suggests that this vulnerability is already being actively exploited.
