CVE-2024-8288: Guten Post Layout – An Advanced Post Grid Collection for WordPress Gutenberg <= 1.2.4 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via align Attribute
First published: Tue Oct 01 2024(Updated: )
The Guten Post Layout – An Advanced Post Grid Collection for WordPress Gutenberg plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘align’ attribute within the 'wp:guten-post-layout/post-grid' Gutenberg block in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.4 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.
