Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Exclusive Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.6.8

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Link Anything functionality due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows 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.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 2.6.8, update to a version higher than 2.6.8 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Link Anything functionality to minimize the risk of exploitation. Additionally, ensure that all users with contributor-level access and above are trusted, as they have the potential to inject malicious scripts.
