CVE-2023-3410
Status: AnalyzedMedium (5.4)—
The Bricks theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘customTag' attribute in versions up to, and including, 1.10.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with access to the Bricks Builder (admin-only by default), to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This becomes more of an issue when Bricks Builder access is granted to lower-privileged users.
CVSS
- Version: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N
- Base score: 5.4
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.31%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 22
- Score date: 10/5/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).

"value": "El tema Bricks para WordPress es vulnerable a Cross-site Scripting Almacenado a través del atributo 'customTag' en versiones hasta la 1.10.1 incluida, debido a una desinfección de entrada y un escape de salida insuficientes. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con acceso a Bricks Builder (solo para administradores por defecto), inyecten secuencias de comandos web arbitrarias en páginas que se ejecutarán cada vez que un usuario acceda a una página inyectada. Esto se convierte en un problema mayor cuando se concede acceso a Bricks Builder a usuarios con menos privilegios."
