Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in aajoda Aajoda Testimonials aajoda-testimonials allows Stored XSS.This issue affects Aajoda Testimonials: from n/a through <= 2.2.2.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
A WordPress testimonials plugin can store unsafe input that later runs as script in another user’s browser. For affected sites, this can enable limited data exposure, content changes, or disruption when a victim views the affected page or admin area.
Executive priority
Treat this as a moderate-priority web application issue. It is not confirmed as actively exploited, but affected public WordPress sites should be inventoried and remediated promptly, especially where non-admin users can submit testimonial content.
Technical view
CVE-2024-51614 is a stored XSS issue in Aajoda Testimonials, package aajoda-testimonials, affecting versions through 2.2.2. CVSS 3.1 is 6.5 with network access, low attack complexity, low privileges required, and user interaction required. The CVE maps to CWE-79.
Likely exposure
Exposure is limited to WordPress installations with Aajoda Testimonials version 2.2.2 or earlier. The CVSS vector indicates an attacker needs some authenticated privilege and a victim must view the affected content. The supplied sources do not identify the exact vulnerable field or WordPress role.
Exploitation context
The source bundle does not show CISA KEV listing or cited evidence of active exploitation. Stored XSS is still operationally relevant because malicious content can persist and trigger later in another user’s browser.
Researcher notes
The bundle supports the affected product, version range, CWE, CVSS, and no KEV status. It does not provide exploit details, vulnerable parameters, patch version, or proof of active exploitation, so validation should stay focused on version exposure and vendor-confirmed guidance.
Mitigation direction
Inventory WordPress sites for the aajoda-testimonials plugin.
Prioritize sites running Aajoda Testimonials 2.2.2 or earlier.
Check vendor or Patchstack guidance for a fixed release or official mitigation.
Disable or remove the plugin where it is not business-critical.
Limit testimonial-management access to trusted users until remediated.
Validation and detection
Confirm installed plugin slug and version on each WordPress site.
Review whether untrusted users can create or edit testimonials.
Check vendor advisories for fixed-version status before closing remediation.
Review affected sites for unexpected testimonial content or script-like entries.

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.
