CVE-2026-5924: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in jetmonsters Getwid – Gutenberg Blocks
The Getwid – Gutenberg Blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Google Maps block's 'customStyle' attribute in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.3. This is due to the use of eval() on user-controlled block content in the frontend JavaScript mapStyles() function. 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.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-5924 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Getwid – Gutenberg Blocks plugin for WordPress, specifically in the Google Maps block's 'customStyle' attribute. The issue arises from the use of JavaScript's eval() function on user-supplied block content within the frontend mapStyles() function, allowing authenticated users with Contributor or higher privileges to inject arbitrary scripts. These scripts execute in the context of any user who views the compromised page, potentially leading to session hijacking or other client-side attacks.
Potential Impact
An attacker with Contributor-level or higher access can inject persistent malicious scripts into pages via the vulnerable 'customStyle' attribute. These scripts execute in the browsers of users who visit the infected pages, potentially leading to information disclosure or session compromise. The vulnerability does not affect availability and requires authenticated access, limiting its impact to confidentiality and integrity.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or fix is currently confirmed for this vulnerability. Users should monitor the vendor's advisory for updates. Until a fix is available, restrict Contributor-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or avoiding use of the Google Maps block's 'customStyle' attribute to reduce risk.
