WordPress · Brizy – Page Builder · CVE-2024-1291
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
The Brizy – Page Builder plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.4.40
**Description**
The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the `Countdown URL` parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor access or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages, which will execute when a user accesses an injected page.
**Recommendations**
For versions up to, and including, 2.4.40, update to a version higher than 2.4.40 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the `Countdown URL` parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation.
