Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions UiCore Elements versions up to, and including, 1.0.16

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in the UiCore Elements plugin for WordPress. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in certain widgets, including the UI Counter, UI Icon Box, UI Testimonial Slider, UI Testimonial Grid, and UI Testimonial Carousel. Authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access and above can inject arbitrary web scripts in pages, which will execute when a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.0.16, update to a version higher than 1.0.16 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the vulnerable widgets, such as UI Counter, UI Icon Box, UI Testimonial Slider, UI Testimonial Grid, and UI Testimonial Carousel, to minimize the risk of exploitation.
