AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The Prime Slider – Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability (CWE-79) in its General widget due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation. Authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher can inject arbitrary scripts that execute in the context of users viewing the affected pages. This vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 3.14.3. The CVSS 3.1 base 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, required privileges at the contributor level, no user interaction, scope changed, and limited confidentiality and integrity impact without availability impact. No patch or vendor advisory is currently provided.
Potential Impact
An attacker with contributor or higher privileges can inject persistent malicious scripts into pages via the vulnerable widget. These scripts execute in the browsers of users who visit the injected pages, potentially leading to session hijacking, defacement, or other client-side impacts. The vulnerability does not affect availability and has limited confidentiality and integrity impact. There are no known exploits in the wild as of the publication 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 vulnerable plugin if possible. Monitor for updates from the vendor bdthemes regarding a security patch.
