Last modified
CVE-2023-6497 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 4.8/10 on the CVSS scale. The WordPress Simple Shopping Cart plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the automatic redirect URL setting in all versions up to and including 4.7.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.

EPSS estimates a 0.30% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
