Official description
The aBlocks – WordPress Gutenberg Blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the "Table Of Content" Block, specifically in the "markerView" attribute, in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.
