WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Elementor < 4.3.5 - Author+ Stored XSS via SVG Upload
Description
The plugin does not sanitize uploaded SVG files on every upload route, allowing users with the Author role and above to upload a file containing JavaScript, which will run in the browser of any user who opens it. Exploitation requires unfiltered file uploads to be enabled in the plugin settings, which is not the default.
