Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in DevItems HT Event ht-event allows Reflected XSS.This issue affects HT Event: from n/a through <= 1.4.6.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
HT Event, a WordPress event manager plugin for Elementor, has a reflected XSS flaw through version 1.4.6. An attacker could lure a user into opening a crafted link, causing script to run in that user’s browser. Business impact depends on where the plugin is installed and who can be targeted.
Executive priority
Treat this as a high-priority web application exposure if HT Event is installed on public WordPress sites. It is not currently evidenced as actively exploited in the provided sources, but user-targeted XSS can still support account abuse, brand risk, and session compromise.
Technical view
CVE-2025-24624 is a CWE-79 reflected cross-site scripting issue in DevItems HT Event. The CVSS 3.1 score is 7.1 with network attack vector, low complexity, no privileges required, and user interaction required. The source bundle does not identify a fixed version or specific vulnerable parameter.
Likely exposure
Exposure is likely limited to WordPress sites running the HT Event plugin at version 1.4.6 or earlier. Public-facing marketing, event, and Elementor-based WordPress sites should be checked first.
Exploitation context
The provided sources do not show CISA KEV listing or confirmed active exploitation. Exploitation requires user interaction, consistent with reflected XSS, so phishing or link-based delivery is the main concern supported by the CVSS vector.
Researcher notes
Evidence is sufficient for product, vulnerability class, affected range, and CVSS. Evidence is incomplete for fixed version, vulnerable parameter, proof-of-concept details, and exploitation in the wild. Avoid assuming remediation beyond vendor or Patchstack guidance.
Mitigation direction
Inventory WordPress sites for the HT Event plugin.
Identify installations running HT Event version 1.4.6 or earlier.
Check DevItems or Patchstack guidance for a fixed version.
Update, disable, or remove the plugin if no safe version is confirmed.
Prioritize sites with admin or customer login flows.
Validation and detection
Review WordPress plugin inventories for package name ht-event.
Confirm plugin versions against the affected range through 1.4.6.
Check web logs for unusual requests involving HT Event pages or parameters.
Verify whether security tooling flags CVE-2025-24624 on affected sites.
Document compensating controls if immediate removal is not possible.

Client-side and session-facing weaknesses should be reviewed alongside initial-access and user-execution behaviors. Open the exact CWE lookup page first, then review the ATT&CK searches from that MITRE weakness context. This is a Glexia lookup hint, not an official ATT&CK mapping.
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.
