Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Master Addons – Free Widgets, Hover Effects, Toggle, Conditions, Animations for Elementor plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.0.5.9

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping, specifically via the url parameter. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level permissions and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages, which will execute when a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 2.0.5.9, update to a version higher than 2.0.5.9 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the url parameter in the affected plugin to minimize the risk of exploitation.
