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 Rise Blocks – A Complete Gutenberg Page Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the titleTag parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. 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 Rise Blocks WordPress plugin fails to properly sanitize the titleTag parameter and escape output, allowing authenticated users with Contributor-level or higher access to inject persistent malicious scripts. These scripts execute when other users access affected pages.

MitigationUpdate the Rise Blocks plugin to a version beyond 3.6 that includes proper input sanitization and output escaping for the titleTag parameter.

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. Verify Rise Blocks plugin is installed
    Navigate to WordPress admin > Plugins and look for 'Rise Blocks' or 'Eaglevisionit Rise Blocks' in the installed plugins list
    Affected if The plugin appears in the plugins list
  2. Check installed version number
    In WordPress admin > Plugins, find Rise Blocks and view the version number displayed beneath the plugin name
    Affected if The version listed is 3.6 or lower
  3. Identify use of titleTag functionality
    Review pages, posts, or custom post types where Rise Blocks has been used; look for any setting or field labeled 'titleTag' or similar in the plugin's block settings or meta options
    Affected if The titleTag parameter is configured or used in any content
  4. Confirm contributor-level or higher user access exists
    Navigate to WordPress admin > Users and review the existing user roles; check if any accounts have Contributor, Author, Editor, or Administrator roles assigned
    Affected if At least one user account has Contributor-level access or higher
  5. Inspect titleTag output for escaping
    View the source code of a page where titleTag is used; examine the HTML output around the title area to see if the parameter value is properly escaped (look for HTML entities like &lt; &gt; &quot;)
    Affected if The titleTag value renders as raw HTML or unescaped characters without proper encoding

Your environment is affected if the Rise Blocks plugin version is 3.6 or lower AND the titleTag feature is in use, regardless of whether you have users with Contributor-level access.
