AI-suggested

Until an official fix is available, restrict Author-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or limiting the use of the file uploader in Qi Blocks. Monitor for plugin updates from qodeinteractive and apply them promptly once released.

Description

The Qi Blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's file uploader in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
