CVE-2024-12520: Dominion – Domain Checker for WPBakery <= 2.2.2 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting
Description
The Dominion – Domain Checker for WPBakery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'dominion_shortcodes_domain_search_6' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.2 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.
