WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Essential Addons for Elementor < 6.6.3 - Author+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Event Calendar Widget
Description
The plugin is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Event Calendar widget due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on event titles sourced from The Events Calendar. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
