Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
CVE-2026-2029 affects the Livemesh Addons for Beaver Builder WordPress plugin. A logged-in user with Contributor-level access or higher could save malicious script in a pricing item shortcode. That script may run when visitors or administrators view the affected page. This is a medium-risk issue because it requires an authenticated account, but it can still impact site trust and user sessions.
Executive priority
Treat as a moderate-priority website security issue. Prioritize sites with many content contributors, untrusted authors, or administrator visits to contributor-created pages. If the plugin is not business-critical, consider temporary disablement until vendor guidance confirms remediation.
Technical view
The issue is stored cross-site scripting in the [labb_pricing_item] shortcode title and value attributes in Livemesh Addons for Beaver Builder through 3.9.2. The CVE description attributes this to insufficient sanitization and escaping, specifically decoding entities after wp_kses_post(). CVSS is 6.4 with low privileges required, network attack vector, changed scope, and low confidentiality and integrity impact.
Likely exposure
WordPress sites using Livemesh Addons for Beaver Builder version 3.9.2 or earlier are the relevant exposure, especially where Contributor or higher accounts are allowed to create shortcode content. The provided sources do not identify other affected products.
Exploitation context
The source bundle does not show CISA KEV listing or active exploitation evidence. Exploitation requires an authenticated WordPress account with Contributor-level access or higher and placement of malicious content in affected shortcode attributes. Successful exploitation could execute script in browsers of users viewing the injected page.
Researcher notes
The provided references point to shortcode handling in the pricing table module and the CVE description explains the sanitization bypass pattern. No exploit proof, patch commit, or fixed version is included in the supplied sources, so remediation should be verified against authoritative vendor or WordPress plugin information.
Mitigation direction
- Inventory WordPress sites using Livemesh Addons for Beaver Builder.
- Identify installations running version 3.9.2 or earlier.
- Check vendor or WordPress plugin guidance for an updated fixed version.
- Restrict Contributor-level and higher access to trusted users only.
- Review pages using the affected pricing item shortcode.
- Temporarily disable the plugin if business risk outweighs functionality need.
Validation and detection
- Confirm plugin name and installed version in WordPress administration or asset inventory.
- Search site content for use of the labb_pricing_item shortcode.
- Review recent edits by Contributor-level or higher accounts.
- Inspect affected pages for unexpected script behavior or injected markup.
- Verify remediation against vendor guidance when a fixed version is identified.
