Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-3818 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: wpdevteam Gutenberg Essential Blocks – Page Builder for Gutenberg Blocks \u0026 Patterns. 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-2024-3818/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-3818/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-3818","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-3818/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-3818","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wmqf-xv94-hx62"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated contributors can inject arbitrary scripts via the Social Icons block, leading to code execution when pages are viewed.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[{"product":"essential_blocks","vendor":"wpdeveloper"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","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 Essential Blocks – Page Builder Gutenberg Blocks, Patterns \u0026 Templates plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's \"Social Icons\" block in all versions up to, and including, 4.5.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes.
