AI-suggested

Until a fix is available, administrators should avoid importing templates from untrusted sources and restrict access to the template-import feature to trusted users only.

Description

The Export & Import WPBakery Page Builder WordPress plugin through 1.0.2 does not perform any CSRF check on its template-import feature and does not sanitise the imported data before storing it and echoing it back, allowing attackers to make a logged-in administrator import a crafted template via a forged request that results in Stored Cross-Site Scripting executed in the administrator's session.
