Description

The WPBakery Page Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Custom JS module in all versions up to, and including, 8.6.1. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping of user-supplied JavaScript code in the Custom JS module. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page via the WPBakery Page Builder Custom JS module granted they have access to the WPBakery editor for post types.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issue in the WPBakery Page Builder plugin for WordPress, specifically in the Custom JS module. It occurs because the plugin does not properly sanitize or escape user-supplied JavaScript code. Authenticated users with contributor-level access or higher can inject malicious scripts that execute whenever someone accesses the affected page through the WPBakery editor.

An attacker with contributor-level access or higher can inject arbitrary JavaScript code into pages, which will execute in the browsers of users who view those pages. This can lead to unauthorized actions, data theft, session hijacking, or other malicious activities within the context of the affected website.
