Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Elementor Website Builder plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.21.4

Description The Elementor Website Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to DOM-Based Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the hover animation parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For Elementor Website Builder plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.21.4, update to a version higher than 3.21.4 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the hover animation parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation.
