Technical details

Stored XSS in the ditty_layout_render_tag_wrapper() function in includes/layout-tag-helpers.php allows Author+ users to inject arbitrary HTML element names via wrapper attributes without validation. The vulnerability exists because wp_kses_post() sanitization runs before layout tag attributes are parsed at render time, allowing plaintext JavaScript payloads to bypass filtering and be executed as script tags in visitor browsers. No patch is available; versions before 3.1.70 are affected.
