MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Execution The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires an authenticated account with contributor-level privileges or above (per CVSS PR:L) on the target WordPress site. Beyond authentication, two product-specific conditions must hold: the plugin's productRating option must be enabled, and the associated WooCommerce product must have a non-zero rating - the vulnerable code in product-tab/render.php is only reached under both. These are non-default, feature-dependent prerequisites (including a WooCommerce dependency) that substantially limit realistic exploitation. The injected payload executes when any user views the affected page, so victim interaction is passive page access rather than an explicit action by the attacker's target. |
| Impact | This is a moderate-severity stored XSS (CVSS 6.4, CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N) that realistically sits well below top-priority status. The attack vector is network-facing but the CVSS vector itself requires PR:L - an attacker must hold a legitimate authenticated account at contributor level or above, which meaningfully raises the bar on multi-author or membership sites and effectively eliminates anonymous mass exploitation. The scope change (S:C) and only Low confidentiality/integrity impact reflect a classic script-injection-into-another-user's-browser outcome rather than server compromise. There is no CISA KEV listing and no exploitation signal in the input, so this is not confirmed actively exploited; no EPSS score was supplied, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified from the data provided. The vuln.today decision label is 'this_month' (not act_now or emergency), consistent with a patch-on-normal-cadence posture. Crucially, exploitation is gated on a specific non-default feature state: the productRating option must be enabled and the associated WooCommerce product must carry a non-zero rating, which narrows the realistically exploitable population further. Overall this reads as a genuine but low-urgency, privilege-and-configuration-constrained issue rather than a high-CVSS-but-overstated emergency. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who has registered or obtained a contributor-level (or higher) account on a WordPress site running a vulnerable Cozy Blocks version crafts a page using the product-rating block and places a malicious script into the productRating.iconColor value, which is stored without adequate sanitization or output escaping. When the productRating option is enabled against a WooCommerce product with a non-zero rating, the stored payload executes in the browser of any user - including higher-privileged administrators - who subsequently views the injected page. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; the trigger requires the specific feature and WooCommerce rating conditions described. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 28, 2026
Stored cross-site scripting in the Cozy Blocks - Website Builder & Business Growth Toolkit plugin for WordPress (slug cozy-addons) up to and including version 2.2.27 lets an authenticated user with contributor-level access or above persist arbitrary script through the productRating.iconColor setting, which is rendered into the product tab without sufficient sanitization or output escaping and executes for anyone who later views the affected page. Exploitation is gated by two non-default, feature-dependent prerequisites: the plugin's productRating option must be enabled and the associated WooCommerce product must carry a non-zero rating, so the vulnerable code in blocks/product-tab/render.php is only reached in that configuration and a WooCommerce dependency is implied. No public exploit code was identified at time of analysis, and the references include a plugin Trac changeset (3752142) alongside the 2.2.27 source that the advisory points to; a released patched version is not independently confirmed in the provided data.
RemediationAI
Update the Cozy Blocks plugin beyond 2.2.27 as soon as a release containing the fix is available from the WordPress.org plugin directory; the provided references include plugin Trac changeset 3752142 for cozy-addons and the 2.2.27 source lines at blocks/product-tab/render.php#L934 and #L936, but a specific patched version number is not confirmed in this data, so verify the changelog before assuming a given release is clean. If updating cannot be done immediately, the most direct compensating control follows from the documented preconditions: disable the plugin's productRating option, which removes the only code path that reaches the vulnerable sink (the trade-off is that star ratings and their icon coloring stop rendering on product tabs). Because the flaw requires contributor-level or higher credentials, temporarily tightening role assignments and reviewing contributor-authored product tab blocks for unexpected markup reduces exposure, at the cost of editorial workflow friction; note that this is a containment measure only and does not sanitize previously stored payloads, so existing content should be inspected and cleaned. Consult the Wordfence advisory at https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/33e9f3e2-2631-4c8d-b705-6bb592a1f7a3?source=cve for the vendor's own remediation guidance.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The issue is a CWE-79 cross-site scripting flaw in a WordPress block plugin. The product tab block's server-side render callback (blocks/product-tab/render.php, referenced at lines 934 and 936 in tag 2.2.27) writes the productRating.iconColor value into page markup without adequate input sanitization and without output escaping, so a value stored by a low-privileged author is emitted verbatim into the rendered page and parsed as script or as an attribute-breaking payload by the victim's browser. Because the block is rendered server-side, the payload is persisted in post content and re-served on every page view rather than reflected. Reaching the sink is conditional: the plugin's productRating option must be enabled and the WooCommerce product the block references must have a non-zero rating, which makes this a feature-dependent path rather than a default installation exposure. The CVSS vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N rates the bug as network-reachable, low attack complexity, requiring authenticated privileges (PR:L) consistent with contributor-level access, with no explicit user action required from the attacker's perspective (UI:N) since execution happens on passive page views, and scope-changed (S:C) because the injected script runs in other users' browser sessions on the site.

DescriptionCVE.org
The Cozy Blocks - Website Builder for WordPress Block Editor | Gutenberg Blocks, Patterns & Templates plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'productRating.iconColor' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.27 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. The vulnerable code path is only reached when the productRating option is enabled and the associated WooCommerce product has a non-zero rating.
