Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2020-36656 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Spectra. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36656/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36656/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-36656","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36656/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-36656","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3xxh-w577-324m"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Contributors can execute stored cross-site scripting attacks via unsanitized input in Gutenberg blocks, potentially compromising user sessions and site integrity.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"spectra","vendor":"brainstormforce"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"The Spectra WordPress plugin before 1.15.0 does not sanitize user input as it reaches its style HTML attribute, allowing contributors to conduct stored XSS attacks via the plugin's Gutenberg blocks.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Spectra \u003c 1.15.0 - Contributor+ Stored Cross-Side Scripting","id":"CVE-2020-36656","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-36657"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Command injection in yiisoft/yii2-gii","id":"CVE-2020-36655"},"products":["Spectra"],"published":"2023-02-21","related":[{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"WordPress Spectra plugin \u003c= 2.6.6 - Server Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-36679","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-28"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Spectra plugin\u003c= 2.14.1 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-7590","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-08-12"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Spectra Plugin \u003c= 2.7.9 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-49833","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-12-14"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Spectra Gutenberg Blocks – Website Builder for the Block Editor","id":"CVE-2024-10484","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-03"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Spectra – WordPress Gutenberg Blocks \u003c= 2.13.0 - Authenticated (Author+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2024-4366","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-24"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Spectra Gutenberg Blocks – Website Builder for the Block Editor","id":"CVE-2024-1814","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-23"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Spectra Gutenberg Blocks – Website Builder for the Block Editor","id":"CVE-2024-1815","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-23"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-04-23","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Contributors can execute stored cross-site scripting attacks via unsanitized input in Gutenberg blocks, potentially compromising user sessions and site integrity.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36656/"}
