An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-36709 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: kingthemes Page Builder: KingComposer – Free Drag and Drop page builder by King-Theme. 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-2020-36709/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36709/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-36709","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36709/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-36709","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pr9r-mj5f-cvxc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can inject arbitrary web scripts via shortcodes in the KingComposer WordPress plugin, leading to stored XSS.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[{"product":"page_builder_kingcomposer","vendor":"king-theme"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/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 Page Builder: KingComposer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via via shortcode in versions before 2.9.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.
