Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Page Builder Gutenberg Blocks – CoBlocks plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.1.9

Description The issue arises from insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes in the Social Profiles widget, allowing authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above 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, 3.1.9, update to a version higher than 3.1.9 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Social Profiles widget to minimize the risk of exploitation.
