Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: wpmonks
Product: Gravity Booster – Styles & Layouts for Gravity Forms

Description

The Gravity Booster – Styles & Layouts for Gravity Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via admin settings in all versions up to, and including, 5.26 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with editor-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-12477 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Gravity Booster – Styles & Layouts for Gravity Forms WordPress plugin. The flaw exists due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation, allowing authenticated attackers with editor or higher privileges to inject arbitrary scripts via admin settings. These scripts execute in the context of users visiting the injected pages. The vulnerability affects multi-site WordPress installations and those with unfiltered_html disabled, impacting all plugin versions up to and including 5.26. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 4.4, indicating medium severity, with attack vector network, high attack complexity, requiring privileges, no user interaction, and scope changed.

Potential Impact

An attacker with editor-level or higher privileges can inject malicious scripts that execute in the browsers of users who visit the compromised pages. This can lead to limited confidentiality and integrity impacts such as session hijacking or content manipulation. The vulnerability does not affect availability. The scope is changed, meaning the vulnerability affects resources beyond the attacker’s privileges.

Mitigation Recommendations

No official patch or fix has been confirmed at this time. Administrators should monitor the vendor's advisory for updates and apply any forthcoming patches promptly. Until a fix is available, restrict editor-level permissions to trusted users only and consider disabling multi-site installations or enabling unfiltered_html if feasible. Review and sanitize admin inputs manually where possible to reduce risk.
