Summary

CVE-2024-1935 is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting the Giveaways and Contests plugin for WordPress, versions 1.12.5 and below. The 'parent_url' parameter in this plugin lacks adequate input sanitization and output escaping, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts. Successful exploitation results in the execution of these scripts whenever a user accesses an injected page, potentially leading to data theft or unintended website functionality. This vulnerability underscores the importance of implementing robust input validation and output encoding in WordPress plugins to prevent such attacks.
