Description
Metaphor Creations Ditty versions before 3.1.70 contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. Authenticated users with Author-level privileges or higher can inject arbitrary HTML elements via malicious wrapper attribute values in layout tags. This occurs because the function ditty_layout_render_tag_wrapper() inserts user-supplied values directly as HTML element names without allowlist validation. The sanitization function wp_kses_post() is bypassed since it runs at save time, but the malicious attributes are resolved at render time, enabling execution of the payload in visitors' browsers.
