Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Gutenberg Blocks with AI by Kadence WP – Page Builder Features plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.2.36

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the countdown timer due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 3.2.36, update to a version higher than 3.2.36 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the countdown timer feature until a patch is available.
