Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in Element Invader ElementInvader Addons for Elementor elementinvader-addons-for-elementor allows DOM-Based XSS.This issue affects ElementInvader Addons for Elementor: from n/a through <= 1.4.3.
AnalysisAI
DOM-based cross-site scripting in the ElementInvader Addons for Elementor WordPress plugin (all versions up to and including 1.4.3) lets remote attackers inject client-side script that executes in a victim's browser when they interact with a crafted link or page. Reported by Patchstack and classified CWE-79 with a CVSS 7.1, the scope-changing flaw can lead to session hijacking or defacement in the WordPress context. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Technical ContextAI
The affected component is a third-party add-on pack that extends the Elementor page builder for WordPress, identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:element_invader:elementinvader_addons_for_elementor. The root cause is CWE-79, Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation, specifically the DOM-based variant: attacker-controllable data reaches a client-side sink (e.g. innerHTML, document.write, or an unsanitized element attribute handled by the plugin's JavaScript) without proper encoding, so the payload executes in the DOM rather than being reflected by the server. Because Elementor add-ons render user-influenced content into pages, tainted parameters processed by the plugin's front-end scripts are the likely injection path.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch version is identified in the available data, so treat the fix as pending confirmation and monitor the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/Wordpress/Plugin/elementinvader-addons-for-elementor/vulnerability/wordpress-elementinvader-addons-for-elementor-plugin-1-4-3-cross-site-scripting-xss-vulnerability) and the plugin's WordPress.org changelog for a release newer than 1.4.3, upgrading as soon as one is published. Until then, apply compensating controls: deploy a WAF or Patchstack's virtual patching to filter XSS payloads targeting the plugin, add a strict Content-Security-Policy that disallows inline script execution to blunt DOM injection (note this can break other plugins/themes relying on inline scripts and requires testing), and if the vulnerable feature is non-essential, disable or remove the plugin to eliminate exposure at the cost of losing its Elementor widgets.
