Description
The Getwid – Gutenberg Blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'data-image-points' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.1 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.

Score: 6.4 Medium

KEV: No
Impact: Stored Cross‑Site Scripting with contributor‑level authentication required
Action: Apply update
AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability allows an attacker with contributor or higher privileges to inject arbitrary JavaScript into the 'data-image-points' attribute of the Getwid – Gutenberg Blocks plugin. This script is stored and then executed on other users’ browsers when they view the affected page, resulting in a classic stored XSS flaw that can compromise victim credentials or enable session hijacking. The weakness exists because the plugin fails to sanitize or escape user‑supplied input before outputting it, as identified by CWE‑79. The impact is limited to a single user session for each victim user who views the injected page, but the malicious script can affect all users who access that page.

Affected Systems

Getwid – Gutenberg Blocks WordPress plugin, versions up to 3.0.1, on installations that provide contributor or higher roles.

Risk and Exploitability

A CVSS of 6.4 reflects a medium‑severity stored XSS that needs contributor or higher authentication. The EPSS score is not available, and the issue is not in CISA KEV. The attacker must log in as a contributor or higher to insert the payload, but any user who views the page will execute the injected script. No additional prerequisites are listed beyond the required authentication level.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Getwid – Gutenberg Blocks to a version newer than 3.0.1, ensuring the stored 'data-image-points' processing is fixed
  • Remove or sanitize any existing 'data-image-points' values that may contain malicious content from existing pages or posts
  • Limit contributor and higher role access to image blocks or apply content‑security‑policy headers to mitigate the impact of any residual XSS vectors
