Description

The Element Pack Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the SVG Image Widget in versions up to and including 8.4.2. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on SVG content fetched from remote URLs in the render_svg() function. The function fetches SVG content using wp_safe_remote_get() and then directly echoes it to the page without any sanitization, only applying a preg_replace() to add attributes to the SVG tag which does not remove malicious event handlers. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary JavaScript in SVG files that will execute whenever a user accesses a page containing the malicious widget.
