WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Essential Blocks – Page Builder Gutenberg Blocks, Patterns & Templates < 5.3.0 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting

Description

The Essential Blocks – Page Builder Gutenberg Blocks, Patterns & Templates plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘data-marker’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 5.2.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for 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.
