Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions HT Mega – Absolute Addons For Elementor plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.4.6

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes, specifically the size value in several widgets. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level and above permissions to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 2.4.6, update to a version higher than 2.4.6 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the size field in widgets to minimize the risk of exploitation.
