Technical details
A stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the JetElements For Elementor plugin for WordPress (versions <= 2.9.1.1). The issue stems from improper neutralization of input during web page generation (CWE-79). An attacker with Contributor-level privileges can inject malicious HTML or JavaScript payloads into the site's content. Successful exploitation requires a victim (such as an administrator) to interact with the affected page or perform a specific action like clicking a link. This can lead to unauthorized script execution in the context of the victim's browser, potentially resulting in session hijacking or site defacement. The vulnerability is addressed in version 2.9.1.2.
