Medium 6.4
In plain English
A medium-severity cross-site scripting in Sympl Repeater for ACF and Elementor from idocoh. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.3% (higher than 25% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
The Sympl Repeater for ACF and Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via ACF repeater field values in all versions up to, and including, 2.3. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the symp_arfe_replace_content() function, which uses str_replace() to substitute raw ACF field values (retrieved via get_field()) directly into Elementor-rendered HTML without any escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
