AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
The Plus Addons for Elementor WordPress plugin is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) through its Progress Bar shortcode. This vulnerability exists in all versions up to and including 6.4.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes.
Authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher can exploit this flaw by injecting arbitrary web scripts into pages. These scripts will execute whenever any user accesses the injected page.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability allows attackers with contributor-level access to inject malicious scripts into web pages, which will execute in the browsers of users who visit those pages.
The impact includes potential theft of user credentials, session hijacking, defacement of the website, or distribution of malware to visitors.
Because the attack requires authenticated access with contributor privileges, the risk is somewhat limited to environments where such users exist.
