Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions PHP Everywhere versions prior to 2.0.4

Description The issue is related to the incorrect management of code generation in the PHP Everywhere plugin, specifically with the edit posts capability. This allows any user who can edit posts to execute PHP code snippets via a WordPress Gutenberg block. The exploitation of this issue may enable a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code using Gutenberg blocks.

Recommendations For PHP Everywhere versions prior to 2.0.4, update to version 2.0.4 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the edit posts capability to minimize the risk of exploitation.
