Summary
The Kadence Blocks plugin for WordPress is susceptible to a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This flaw arises from inadequate input sanitization and output escaping in the contact form message settings, enabling authenticated attackers, holding editor-level access or higher, to inject malicious web scripts into pages. Consequently, these scripts execute when any user accesses the compromised page, significantly affecting multi-site installations and those prohibiting unfiltered HTML.
