Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The Simple Pricing Tables For WPBakery Page Builder(Formerly Visual Composer) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'wdo_simple_pricing_table_free' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.0 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.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The Simple Pricing Tables For WPBakery Page Builder WordPress plugin is vulnerable to stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via the 'wdo_simple_pricing_table_free' shortcode. The vulnerability exists because user-supplied attributes in the shortcode are not properly sanitized before output, allowing authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher to inject malicious JavaScript that executes when other users view affected pages.

MitigationUpdate the plugin to a patched version once available, or remove/quarantine the plugin until a fix is released. Audit existing pages using the shortcode to identify and remove any injected malicious scripts.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify if the plugin is installed
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'Simple Pricing Tables For WPBakery Page Builder' or 'Webdevocean Pricing Tables'. Alternatively, check the /wp-content/plugins/ directory for a folder named similarly to 'simple-pricing-tables-for-wpbakery' or 'webdevocean-pricing-tables'.
    Affected if The plugin is present on the WordPress site.
  2. Check the installed plugin version
    In WordPress admin > Plugins, find the plugin and look at the version number displayed. Compare it to the affected range: version 1.0 and below.
    Affected if The installed version is 1.0 or lower.
  3. Detect usage of the vulnerable shortcode
    Search the WordPress database for the shortcode 'wdo_simple_pricing_table_free'. This can be done via phpMyAdmin with query: SELECT * FROM wp_posts WHERE post_content LIKE '%wdo_simple_pricing_table_free%' (wp_ prefix may vary). Alternatively, search theme files and page content manually.
    Affected if Pages or posts containing the shortcode exist on the site.
  4. Inspect shortcode attributes for unsanitized output
    Review the content of pages/posts using the shortcode. Check the shortcode attributes in the post_content field for any unusual characters, script tags, or event handlers (onclick, onerror, onload, etc.) that may indicate injected XSS payloads.
    Affected if The shortcode contains unexpected attributes with JavaScript code or HTML tags.
  5. Verify user account roles
    In WordPress admin > Users, review the list of user accounts. Identify any users with Contributor, Author, Editor, or Administrator roles since these roles can use the shortcode.
    Affected if There are users with Contributor-level access or higher who could have authored content with the vulnerable shortcode.

A site is affected if it has Webdevocean Pricing Tables (Simple Pricing Tables For WPBakery Page Builder) version 1.0 or lower installed AND has pages or posts using the wdo_simple_pricing_table_free shortcode.
