# CVE-2026-6378: Maxi Blocks \<= 2.1.9 - Authenticated (Author+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Style Card REST API

- Severity: CVSS 6.4 (Medium), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2026-05-02 · Updated: 2026-05-04

## Affected

- ckp267 MaxiBlocks Builder | 17,000+ Design Assets, Patterns, Icons & Starter Sites: through 2.1.9

## Description

The Maxi Blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the `/wp-json/maxi-blocks/v1.0/style-card` REST API endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping of the `sc_styles` parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute on every page where the plugin's style card styles are loaded, including across the entire WordPress admin panel.
