3DescriptionCVE.org
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.

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 score of 6.4 reflects moderate network-based risk: the attack requires Low privileges (Contributor-level access or above), has Low complexity, but delivers impact across the security scope (Confidentiality:Low, Integrity:Low, with no Availability impact). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | A malicious WordPress contributor with access to page editing could create a new page using the Element Pack SVG Image Widget, configuring it to fetch an SVG file from an attacker-controlled server containing embedded JavaScript event handlers (e.g., an SVG with onclick="fetch_admin_data()" on the root element). When any site visitor or administrator loads that page, the malicious SVG renders unsanitized, and the embedded event handlers execute in the victim's browser, potentially stealing session cookies, redirecting to phishing sites, or performing admin actions if an administrator views the page. … |
| Remediation | Update Element Pack Addons for Elementor to the latest available version beyond 8.4.2, as the plugin maintainers have released patches addressing this vulnerability. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
