Summary

Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the aThemes Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress up to version 1.1.8. The issue is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the 'title_tag' widget setting. Authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above can inject arbitrary scripts. This affects the Posts Timeline and Posts Carousel widgets (including Default, Banner, and Modern skins), which omit the whitelist validation.

Risk Assessment

Attackers can inject malicious scripts that execute in users' browsers when visiting infected pages, potentially leading to data theft or session hijacking.

Recommendation

Update the aThemes Addons for Elementor plugin to the latest version and follow secure coding practices, including proper data sanitization.

Original NVD description (English source)

The aThemes Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'title_tag' Widget Setting in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.8 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This affects the Posts Timeline widget as well as the Posts Carousel widget across its default, Banner, and Modern skins, all of which omit the whitelist validation that is correctly applied in the Posts List widget.
