Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Gutenberg Blocks by Kadence Blocks – Page Builder Features plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.2.34

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping, allowing authenticated attackers with contributor access or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages. These scripts will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 3.2.34, update to a version higher than 3.2.34 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting contributor access to minimize the risk of exploitation. Additionally, avoid using parameters that are not properly sanitized in the affected plugin until the issue is resolved.
