Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Elements Plus! plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.16.2

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via multiple widget link URLs due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. 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, 2.16.2, update to a version later than 2.16.2 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the widget link URLs to minimize the risk of exploitation.
