CVE-2024-5289

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, 3.2.42

Description: The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Google Maps widget parameters due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. 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, 3.2.42, update to a version higher than 3.2.42 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Google Maps widget parameters to minimize the risk of exploitation.
