Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Splide Carousel Block versions prior to 1.7.2

Description The Splide Carousel Block plugin for WordPress contains a Stored Cross-Site Scripting issue caused by insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. Authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher can inject arbitrary web scripts through the url block attribute. These scripts execute when a user accesses the affected page. For the payload to execute for general site visitors, the post must first be approved and published by an editor or administrator.

Recommendations Update the plugin to a version later than 1.7.1. As a temporary mitigation, restrict the ability of users with contributor-level access to modify the url block attribute.
