Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Elementor Header & Footer Builder plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.6.45

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via REST API SVG File uploads due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows authenticated attackers with Author-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the SVG file.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.6.45, update to a version later than 1.6.45 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the REST API SVG File uploads until a patch is available. Additionally, limiting user access to Author-level and above can help minimize the risk of exploitation.
