Assigner: WPScan
Reserved: 22.07.2026 Published: 08.08.2026 Updated: 08.08.2026

The YMC Filter WordPress plugin before 3.12.8 does not sanitize and escape a layout builder setting before outputting it on a public endpoint, and does not verify object ownership when the setting is saved, allowing users with the Contributor role and above to store JavaScript that executes in the browser of any visitor viewing an affected filter.
