Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Gutenberg Blocks with AI by Kadence WP – Page Builder Features plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.4.9

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping, specifically via the icon parameter. This allows authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages, which will execute when a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 3.4.9, update to a version that includes the necessary input sanitization and output escaping fixes to prevent Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the icon parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation.
