Essential Blocks – Page Builder Gutenberg Blocks, Patterns & Templates <= 4.5.12 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting

Published May 18, 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 ‘tagName’ parameter in versions up to, and including, 4.5.12 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
