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
Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in NotFound Brizy Pro allows Reflected XSS. This issue affects Brizy Pro: from n/a through 2.6.1.

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 · moderate confidence

Reflected Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Brizy Pro plugin allows attackers to inject malicious JavaScript through unsanitized user input that gets reflected in web pages generated by the plugin. The vulnerability affects versions up to and including 2.6.1.

MitigationImplement proper input validation and output encoding for all user-supplied data before rendering in HTML context. Apply context-aware sanitization using established libraries like DOMPurify for any HTML content, and ensure all output is properly escaped based on its context.

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. Check Brizy plugin version
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins > Brizy. The version number is displayed under the plugin name. Alternatively, check the main plugin file (typically wp-content/plugins/brizy/brizy.php) for the 'Version' header in the plugin comment block.
    Affected if Version displayed is 2.6.1 or lower (any version up to and including 2.6.1).
  2. Verify plugin is active
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and confirm the Brizy plugin shows as 'Active' under its status.
    Affected if Plugin is active and running a vulnerable version.
  3. Identify reflected input vectors
    Review pages created with Brizy editor that accept user input through URL parameters (query strings) or form submissions. Check for any Brizy elements that display user-supplied data back to the page without apparent sanitization.
    Affected if Any Brizy-rendered page reflects URL parameters or form input directly into HTML output without encoding.
  4. Test for XSS in Brizy-generated pages
    Using a browser or HTTP tool, submit a test payload such as <script>alert(1)</script> as a parameter value on a Brizy-rendered page. Inspect the page source or observe if the script executes upon page reload.
    Affected if The payload is reflected verbatim in the response HTML (visible in page source) rather than being HTML-encoded or removed.

You are affected if Brizy plugin version 2.6.1 or lower is installed and active, and any user-supplied input is reflected in Brizy-generated pages without proper sanitization or encoding.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.

From vendor data
Upgrade available Upgrade to a release after 2.6.1
Interim mitigation

Implement proper input validation and output encoding for all user-supplied data before rendering in HTML context. Apply context-aware sanitization using established libraries like DOMPurify for any HTML content, and ensure all output is properly escaped based on its context.
