Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: litonice13
Product: Master Addons For Elementor – Widgets, Extensions, Theme Builder, Popup Builder & Template Kits

Description

The Master Addons – Free Widgets, Hover Effects, Toggle, Conditions, Animations for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘url’ parameter in versions up to, and including, 2.0.5.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. CVE-2024-35688 is likely a duplicate of this issue.

Technical Analysis

The Master Addons – Free Widgets, Hover Effects, Toggle, Conditions, Animations for Elementor WordPress plugin suffers from a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability (CWE-79) due to improper neutralization of input in the 'url' parameter. Authenticated attackers with contributor or higher privileges can inject arbitrary web scripts that persist and execute in the context of users visiting the compromised pages. This vulnerability affects versions up to 2.0.5.9. No official patch or remediation guidance has been provided in the available data. CVE-2024-35688 is likely a duplicate of this issue.

Potential Impact

Successful exploitation allows an authenticated contributor or higher to inject persistent malicious scripts that execute in the browsers of users viewing the affected pages. This can lead to information disclosure and integrity impacts as indicated by the CVSS vector (Confidentiality: Low, Integrity: Low, Availability: None). There is no evidence of known exploits in the wild at this time.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict contributor-level permissions carefully and monitor for suspicious activity related to the 'url' parameter in the plugin. Avoid granting unnecessary contributor or higher privileges to untrusted users.
