AI-suggested

Until an official fix is available, restrict contributor-level access to trusted users only and consider removing or disabling the vulnerable Icon and Heading widgets if feasible. Monitor for updates from Dream-Theme regarding patches or official mitigations.

Description

The The7 — Website and eCommerce Builder for WordPress theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'url' attribute within the plugin's Icon and Heading widgets in all versions up to, and including, 11.13.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
