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, 6.6.2

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's Icon widget 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, 6.6.2, update to a version later than 6.6.2 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Icon widget for users with contributor-level access and above until a patch is available.
