Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in reputeinfosystems ARPrice arprice allows Reflected XSS.This issue affects ARPrice: from n/a through <= 4.1.3.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
CVE-2024-49700 affects the WordPress ARPrice plugin through version 4.1.3. A malicious link or request could make a victim’s browser run attacker-controlled script in the site context. The issue is high severity because it needs no login, but it does require user interaction.
Executive priority
Treat this as a high-priority WordPress plugin exposure review. Prioritize public-facing sites and sites used by administrators or customers, but avoid claiming emergency active exploitation without supporting evidence.
Technical view
The CVE describes CWE-79 reflected cross-site scripting in reputeinfosystems ARPrice for WordPress through 4.1.3. CVSS 3.1 is 7.1 with network attack vector, low complexity, no privileges required, required user interaction, changed scope, and low confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact.
Likely exposure
Exposure is limited to WordPress sites with the ARPrice plugin installed at version 4.1.3 or earlier. The source bundle does not identify affected endpoints, a fixed version, or default vulnerable configurations beyond the plugin version range.
Exploitation context
The CVE is not listed as CISA KEV in the provided bundle, and no cited source claims active exploitation. Practical risk depends on whether attackers can lure users to crafted requests and whether vulnerable ARPrice pages are reachable.
Researcher notes
Evidence is narrow: the bundle establishes reflected XSS, affected ARPrice versions through 4.1.3, CVSS 7.1, and no KEV status. It does not provide exploit details, affected parameters, fixed version, or vendor advisory content beyond the Patchstack reference.
Mitigation direction
Inventory WordPress sites for ARPrice and record installed versions.
Check vendor and Patchstack guidance for a fixed release or official workaround.
Update ARPrice if an official fixed version is available.
If no guidance exists, assess disabling ARPrice until remediation is clear.
Monitor web logs for unusual ARPrice-related requests.
Validation and detection
Confirm whether ARPrice is installed on each WordPress property.
Verify installed ARPrice versions are not 4.1.3 or earlier.
Review Patchstack and CVE records for updated affected-version details.
Validate remediation in staging before production rollout.
Check security monitoring for suspicious reflected-XSS indicators.

These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present, the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.
