Description

The WPBakery Visual Composer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the link attribute within the vc_single_image shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 7.6 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.

Affected products and versions

  • wpbakery WPBakery Page Builder — Up to and including 7.6
  • wpbakery_page_builder_clipboard_project wpbakery_page_builder_clipboard — Up to and including 7.6
