The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up.

Exploitation Conditions

Requires an authenticated account with contributor-level capabilities or above on the target WordPress site (PR:L), used to save a trigger/condition configuration in the If-So Dynamic Content plugin; the payload is injected through the 'repeater[*]' settings fields (version_uid and siblings such as freeze-mode, cookie-input, ip-input, compare, utm-value, page-url-compare, group-name, custom) handled in the plugin's trigger settings metabox and settings class. Execution is deferred until any user renders a page containing the injected dynamic content. Limiting factors: there is no anonymous/unauthenticated path - the attacker must already possess at least contributor access - confining this to sites that grant such accounts to semi-trusted users; affects all versions up to and including 1.10.2.

Impact

This is a moderate-severity stored XSS (CVSS 6.4) whose real-world priority is bounded primarily by its authentication requirement. The CVSS vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N confirms network reach and low complexity, but PR:L means the attacker must already hold a contributor-level (or higher) account on the target WordPress site, which substantially limits the pool of potential abusers to users already granted content-authoring access. The scope change (S:C) and low C/I impacts reflect that injected script executes in the browser of whoever later views the page, affecting a security authority different from the vulnerable plugin. No EPSS score was supplied in the input and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV, so there is no signal of active exploitation; the vuln.today decision label is 'this_month' (not act_now/emergency), consistent with a patch-this-cycle rather than drop-everything posture. There is no confirmed public exploit code - the references are a Wordfence advisory, plugin source lines, and the fix changeset, not a working PoC. Net: a real but not urgent issue - genuine stored XSS in a widely-installed plugin, meaningfully gated by the contributor-access prerequisite rather than a high-CVSS/low-real-risk false alarm, but not an emergency absent exploitation evidence.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker holding (or phishing/registering into) a contributor-level account on a WordPress site running If-So Dynamic Content submits a trigger configuration whose repeater fields (e.g. version_uid, utm-value, page-url-compare, group-name, custom) contain a malicious script payload that is stored without adequate sanitization. When an administrator or visitor subsequently loads a page rendering that dynamic content, the script executes in their browser session. No public working exploit code is identified at time of analysis, though the vulnerable sink and the fix are visible in the referenced plugin source and changeset.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 28, 2026

Stored cross-site scripting in the If-So Dynamic Content plugin (Elementor & All Page Builders Personalization) for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 1.10.2, lets an attacker who holds contributor-level access or above save malicious script into trigger/condition settings fields, which then executes for any user who views a page rendering that dynamic content. The flaw is insufficient input sanitization and output escaping across the repeater settings parameter and numerous sibling fields (version_uid, freeze-mode, cookie-input, ip-input, compare, utm-value, page-url-compare, group-name, custom). There is no unauthenticated path - exploitation requires an existing account with at least contributor capabilities - which is the main bound on real-world priority; no public exploit code or confirmed active exploitation is identified in the available data (priority label: this_month).

RemediationAI

Update the If-So Dynamic Content plugin to a release above 1.10.2; a Trac changeset (https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3748902/if-so/trunk/admin/partials/ifso_trigger_settings_metabox.php) shows sanitization/escaping changes landing in trunk, so the fixed build should be taken from the WordPress.org plugin repository once published - an exact patched version number is not confirmed in the available data. Because exploitation requires an existing contributor-or-higher account, the practical interim control is to tighten role assignments: audit and remove contributor accounts that do not need to author content, and avoid granting contributor access on sites where this plugin is active until the update is applied, accepting that this limits editorial workflow. Review existing If-So trigger and condition configurations for injected markup before and after upgrading.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The affected component is a WordPress plugin, If-So Dynamic Content - Elementor & All Page Builders Personalization, which stores reusable trigger and condition configurations as WordPress post metadata and renders them on the front end via page builders. The root cause class is CWE-79 (cross-site scripting) arising from absent or insufficient sanitization on input and missing escaping on output of a nested repeater settings structure; the vulnerable handling lives in the trigger settings metabox and the plugin's settings/admin classes, as indicated by the plugin Trac references to ifso_trigger_settings_metabox.php and class-if-so-settings.php at tag 1.10.2. Because the tainted values are persisted rather than reflected, the payload survives the save request and is emitted later whenever the associated dynamic content is rendered. The assessed CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N) reflects a network-reachable attack that requires a low-privileged authenticated account, no user interaction on the part of the victim beyond loading the page, and a scope change because the injected script runs in the context of other users browsing the site. The precise triggering mechanism beyond the settings-field injection point is not detailed in the available sources.

DescriptionCVE.org

The If-So Dynamic Content - Elementor & All Page Builders Personalization plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'repeater[*][version_uid] (and many sibling fields: freeze-mode, cookie-input, ip-input, compare, utm-value, page-url-compare, group-name, custom, …)' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.10.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. 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.
