Contributor-level script execution via unescaped class_suffix attribute
Published Sep 5, 2026 · Updated Sep 6, 2026
Stored XSS in E4J s.r.l. VikWidgetsLoader 1.11.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute JavaScript through a crafted block. The Gutenberg server-side renderer places the class_suffix block attribute into an inline script without sanitization or output escaping. Contributor access is sufficient to save the payload, which runs in the browser of anyone viewing the post, including an administrator reviewing a pending submission.
