Essential Blocks – Page Builder Gutenberg Blocks, Patterns & Templates <= 4.5.9 - Authenticated (Contributor+) DOM-Based Cross-Site Scripting via "Social Icons" Block

Published Apr 19, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026 · Assigned by Wordfence

Description

The Essential Blocks – Page Builder Gutenberg Blocks, Patterns & Templates plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's "Social Icons" block in all versions up to, and including, 4.5.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. 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.
