The Ultra Addons Lite for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'Animated Text' field of the Typeout Widget in version 1.1.9 and below due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for 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.
AnalysisAI
Authenticated contributors to WordPress sites running Ultra Addons Lite for Elementor version 1.1.9 and below can inject persistent malicious scripts through the Typeout Widget's Animated Text field, executing in the browsers of all users who visit affected pages. The root cause is insufficient input sanitization in the vulnerable code component. Despite a moderate CVSS score of 6.4, the EPSS probability of 0.03% (9th percentile) indicates minimal real-world exploitation risk, with no confirmed active exploitation or public exploit code identified to date.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability exists in CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation), specifically in the Typeout Widget component located at ut-elementor-addons-lite/elements/typeout.php line 276. The plugin fails to sanitize user input from the Animated Text field before storing it in the WordPress database, then fails to escape the stored content when rendering it to page visitors. This enables stored cross-site scripting, where malicious JavaScript persists in the database and executes in every visitor's browser context without additional user action, bypassing the same-origin policy through the web application itself.
RemediationAI
Update Ultra Addons Lite for Elementor to version 1.2.0 or later via the WordPress plugin dashboard's automatic update mechanism or manual download from wordpress.org/plugins/ut-elementor-addons-lite/. For organizations unable to immediately update, implement compensating controls: restrict contributor-level access to only essential personnel and regularly audit who holds this role, disable the Typeout Widget feature if it is not actively used, or consider deactivating the entire plugin until patched. In WordPress multisite deployments, prioritize network-wide updates to ensure all sites receive the fix simultaneously. The patch is available with no reported compatibility issues or breaking changes.
