The Bold Page Builder WordPress plugin before 5.9.8 does not properly validate a link URL before outputting it in an HTML attribute, relying on a filter that can be evaded, allowing users with the Contributor role and above to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute when a user clicks the affected link.
Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).
| Vendor | Product | Default status | Versions | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unknown | Bold Page Builder | unaffected |
