CVE-2026-5324: Brizy – Page Builder <= 2.8.11 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting via FileUpload Field Value

Published May 2, 2026
·
Updated

The Brizy – Page Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.11 This is due to a combination of missing nonce verification for unauthenticated form submissions, insufficient handling of FileUpload fields when no file is uploaded, and the reversal of security encoding via htmlentitydecode() followed by unescaped output in the admin view. The submitform() function skips nonce verification for non-logged-in users (api.php:198). The handleFileTypeFields() function fails to overwrite user-supplied values when no file is attached. While htmlentities() is applied during storage, htmlentitydecode() reverses this on display (form-entries.php:79). The form-data.php template outputs FileUpload values directly in href attributes without escurl(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute when an administrator views the form Leads page.
