Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Essential Addons for Elementor Pro plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 5.8.11

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's Counter widget due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes such as title html tag. 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, 5.8.11, update to a version higher than 5.8.11 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Counter widget for users with contributor-level access and above until a patch is available.
