AI-Generated

The Bold Page Builder plugin for WordPress, prior to version 5.9.9, is vulnerable due to insufficient sanitization and escaping of shortcode attributes, enabling users with Contributor roles and higher to inject malicious web scripts. This vulnerability can lead to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, potentially compromising user data and site integrity. WordPress site administrators and developers using this plugin should prioritize updating to the latest version to mitigate the risk.
