WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Essential Addons for Elementor < 6.2.3 - Contributor+ DOM-Based Stored XSS
Description
The plugin is vulnerable to DOM-Based Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘data-gallery-items’ parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
