Stored XSS in Jeg Theme Kit for Elementor WordPress Plugin

Publication date: 2026-10-03

Last updated on: 2026-10-03

Assigner: Wordfence

Description
The Jeg Kit for Elementor – Powerful Addons for Elementor, Widgets & Templates for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.19 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Immediate persistence without moderator approval is possible when the attacker submits from an email address with at least one previously approved comment, though the widened allowlist bypasses sanitization regardless of approval status.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) flaw in the Jeg Kit for Elementor WordPress plugin. It allows unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages via comments due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. These scripts execute when users access the infected pages.

Detection Guidance

This vulnerability involves stored XSS via comments in the Jeg Kit for Elementor plugin. To detect it, inspect WordPress comment sections for suspicious scripts in comments. Check plugin versions and update to 3.2.20 or later. Monitor for unauthorized script execution in pages.

Impact Analysis

Attackers can steal user sessions, deface websites, or redirect visitors to malicious sites. Persistent scripts execute without moderator approval if the attacker uses an email with a previously approved comment. Even without approval, certain bypasses allow script injection.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized data access or modification, violating GDPR (data protection) and HIPAA (health information privacy). Non-compliance risks include fines, legal action, and reputational damage due to compromised user data.

Mitigation Strategies

Update the Jeg Kit for Elementor plugin to the latest version beyond 3.2.19 to address the Stored Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability. Disable or remove the plugin if an update is not immediately available. Monitor comments on your WordPress site for suspicious scripts or unauthorized content.
