The Bold Page Builder plugin for WordPress is susceptible to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) through the 'bt_bb_shortcode' shortcode due to inadequate input sanitization and output escaping. This vulnerability allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher to inject malicious scripts into pages, which will execute when other users access those pages. WordPress site administrators using this plugin should prioritize patching to mitigate potential exploitation risks.

Original NVD Description

The Bold Page Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'bt_bb_shortcode' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 5.6.8 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.
