CVE-2024-4333: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in shaonsina Sina Extension for Elementor
The Sina Extension for Elementor (Slider, Gallery, Form, Modal, Data Table, Tab, Particle, Free Elementor Widgets & Elementor Templates) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to DOM-Based Cross-Site Scripting via several parameters in versions up to, and including, 3.5.3 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.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The Sina Extension for Elementor plugin for WordPress suffers from a DOM-based XSS vulnerability due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation. Authenticated users with contributor-level or higher permissions can exploit this by injecting arbitrary scripts via several parameters. This vulnerability affects versions up to 3.5.3 and can lead to script execution in the context of users visiting the injected pages. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 6.4, reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, required privileges, no user interaction, and impacts on confidentiality and integrity but not availability.
Potential Impact
An attacker with contributor-level or higher permissions can inject malicious scripts that execute in the browsers of users viewing the affected pages. This can lead to unauthorized actions performed on behalf of users, data theft, or session hijacking. The impact is limited to confidentiality and integrity, with no direct availability impact. Since the vulnerability requires authenticated access, the attack surface is somewhat limited but still significant within the WordPress site environment.
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 permissions to trusted users only and consider disabling or removing the Sina Extension for Elementor plugin if possible. Monitor for updates from the vendor and apply patches promptly once available.
