Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: The Royal Elementor Addons and Templates plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.3.980

Description: The issue is related to Stored DOM-based Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's Magazine Grid/Slider widget due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. 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, 1.3.980, update to a version that addresses the insufficient input sanitization and output escaping issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Magazine Grid/Slider widget for users with contributor-level access and above until a patch is available.
