Technical Analysis

The Elementor Addons by Livemesh plugin for WordPress suffers from a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability (CWE-79) due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation. Authenticated attackers with contributor or higher privileges can inject arbitrary JavaScript via widget URL parameters. This malicious code is stored and executed in the context of users visiting the affected pages, potentially leading to session hijacking or other script-based attacks. The vulnerability affects all plugin versions up to 8.3.1. The CVSS 3.1 score is 6.4 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, and partial confidentiality and integrity impact with no availability impact. No vendor advisory or patch links are currently available.

Potential Impact

Successful exploitation allows authenticated users with contributor or higher privileges to inject persistent malicious scripts into pages generated by the plugin. These scripts execute in the browsers of users who visit the infected pages, potentially compromising user sessions and data confidentiality and integrity. The vulnerability does not impact availability. There are no known active exploits in the wild as of the published date.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict contributor-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or removing the Livemesh Addons by Elementor plugin if feasible. Monitor for updates from the vendor regarding patches or official mitigations.
