The ElementsKit Elementor Addons and Templates plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'ekit_tab_title' parameter in the Simple Tab widget in all versions up to, and including, 3.7.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. 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
Stored Cross-Site Scripting in ElementsKit Elementor Addons and Templates plugin (versions up to 3.7.9) allows authenticated contributors and above to inject malicious scripts via the 'ekit_tab_title' parameter in the Simple Tab widget due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. Injected scripts execute when users access affected pages. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability exists in the ElementsKit Elementor Addons plugin, a widely-used WordPress Elementor extension that provides advanced widgets and page-building capabilities. The Simple Tab widget fails to properly sanitize and escape user-supplied input in the 'ekit_tab_title' parameter before rendering it in the page output. This is a Stored XSS vulnerability (CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation), where malicious HTML and JavaScript are persisted in the database and executed in the browsers of all users who view the affected page. The attack surface is limited to authenticated users with contributor-level access or higher, but the impact extends to all site visitors once a page with injected content is published.
RemediationAI
Update ElementsKit Elementor Addons to version 3.8.0 or later, which includes fixes for input sanitization and output escaping in the Simple Tab widget's 'ekit_tab_title' parameter. Administrators should navigate to the WordPress plugin dashboard, locate ElementsKit Elementor Addons, and apply the available update. Until patched, restrict contributor-level and above access to users who are fully trusted; audit existing tab widgets for suspicious content using the WordPress plugin repository changeset at https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3468265/elementskit-lite/trunk/widgets/tab/tab.php to understand the applied fix.
