Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WP Builder plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.0.7

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via SVG File uploads due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows authenticated attackers with Author-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the SVG file.

Recommendations For WP Builder plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.0.7, update to a version later than 3.0.7 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting file uploads, especially SVG files, to minimize the risk of exploitation. Additionally, limiting access to the plugin's functionality to users with higher privileges than Author-level can help reduce the attack surface until a patch is applied.
