AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The WPZOOM Addons for Beaver Builder plugin for WordPress contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability (CWE-79) in its Team Members widget. This vulnerability is due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation, specifically insufficient sanitization and escaping of user-supplied data. Authenticated attackers with contributor-level privileges or above can exploit this flaw to inject arbitrary JavaScript code that executes in the context of users visiting the compromised pages. The vulnerability affects all versions up to 1.3.4 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.4 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N).
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an authenticated contributor or higher to inject persistent malicious scripts that execute in the browsers of users viewing the affected pages. This can lead to limited confidentiality and integrity impacts, such as theft of user session data or manipulation of page content. There is no impact on availability reported. The vulnerability requires authenticated access with contributor-level privileges, limiting the attack surface.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict contributor-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or removing the Team Members widget if feasible. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply patches promptly once released.
