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-2026-97262 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Visual Composer Website Builder. 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-2026-97262/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-97262/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-97262","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-97262/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-97262","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hw5j-wg6q-7vx5"],"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":"A contributor can inject malicious scripts into Visual Composer Website Builder, potentially leading to code execution in the context of other users.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Contributor Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in Visual Composer Website Builder \u003c= 45.16.2 versions.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"WordPress Visual Composer Website Builder plugin \u003c= 45.16.2 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-97262","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress WPAdverts plugin \u003c= 2.3.4 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-97263"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Notivo plugin \u003c= 1.4.2 - Sensitive Data Exposure vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-97261"},"products":["Visual Composer Website Builder"],"published":"2026-09-30","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-09-30","vendors":["Visual Composer"]},"summary":"A contributor can inject malicious scripts into Visual Composer Website Builder, potentially leading to code execution in the context of other users.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-97262/"}
