Divi Carousel Maker Stored Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in the Divi Carousel Maker plugin for WordPress, specifically in versions through 2.0.4. The issue arises in the Image Carousel and Logo Carousel features, where inadequate input sanitization and output escaping allow authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher to inject arbitrary scripts. These scripts are executed when a user views the affected page.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for stored cross-site scripting, where injected scripts are executed in the context of the user viewing the page.

Remediation

Users can update to version 2.1.0 or later to address this vulnerability.
