CVE-2026-1268

The Dynamic Widget Content plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the widget content field in the Gutenberg editor sidebar in all versions up to, and including, 1.3.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. 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.

Summary		(es) El plugin Dynamic Widget Content para WordPress es vulnerable a cross-site scripting almacenado a través del campo de contenido del widget en la barra lateral del editor Gutenberg en todas las versiones hasta la 1.3.6, inclusive, debido a una sanitización de entrada y un escape de salida insuficientes en los atributos proporcionados por el usuario. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel Colaborador y superior, inyecten scripts web arbitrarios en páginas que se ejecutarán cada vez que un usuario acceda a una página inyectada.
