Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
This vulnerability is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issue in the Gutenberg Blocks – PublishPress Blocks plugin for WordPress. It occurs in the 'Marker Title' and 'Marker Description' parameters for the Maps block in versions up to 3.3.4. Due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping, authenticated users with contributor-level access or higher can inject malicious scripts that execute whenever a user views the affected page.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
The vulnerability allows attackers with contributor-level access or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages. These scripts execute when other users access the injected pages, potentially leading to unauthorized actions, data theft, or session hijacking. This can compromise the security and integrity of the affected WordPress site.
