Summary

The Element Pack Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress (up to version 8.4.2) is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the SVG Image Widget. The render_svg() function fetches SVG content from remote URLs without proper sanitization, allowing authenticated attackers (Contributor level and above) to inject arbitrary JavaScript in SVG files.

Risk Assessment

Risk of malicious script execution in users' browsers visiting the page, potentially leading to session theft, redirects, or other attacks.

Recommendation

Update the Element Pack Addons for Elementor plugin to the latest version that includes SVG content sanitization.

Original NVD description (English source)

The Element Pack Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the SVG Image Widget in versions up to and including 8.4.2. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on SVG content fetched from remote URLs in the render_svg() function. The function fetches SVG content using wp_safe_remote_get() and then directly echoes it to the page without any sanitization, only applying a preg_replace() to add attributes to the SVG tag which does not remove malicious event handlers. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary JavaScript in SVG files that will execute whenever a user accesses a page containing the malicious widget.
