Executive Summary

This vulnerability exists in the King Addons for Elementor WordPress plugin before version 51.1.76. It fails to properly escape a user-supplied grid setting, which is then reflected into an HTML attribute without sanitization. This flaw allows attackers to inject malicious JavaScript code that executes in the browser of any visitor who loads a specially crafted page.

Detection Guidance

Check if the King Addons for Elementor plugin is installed and verify its version. If it is below 51.1.76, the system is vulnerable. Inspect network traffic for unauthenticated AJAX responses containing user-supplied grid settings reflected in HTML attributes.

Impact Analysis

If you use the vulnerable version of the King Addons for Elementor plugin, attackers could trick your website visitors into loading a malicious page. This could lead to arbitrary JavaScript execution in their browsers, potentially stealing session cookies, redirecting to phishing sites, or performing actions on their behalf without consent.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability allows arbitrary JavaScript execution in a visitor's browser through reflected input, which could lead to unauthorized data access or manipulation. This may violate GDPR's requirement for protecting user data integrity and confidentiality, and HIPAA's safeguards for electronic protected health information if exploited in healthcare contexts.

Mitigation Strategies

Update the King Addons for Elementor plugin to version 51.1.76 or later immediately. If updating is not possible, consider disabling the plugin until a patch is applied to prevent exploitation.
