CVE-2024-6804: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in jegtheme Jeg Kit for Elementor – Powerful Addons for Elementor, Widgets & Templates for WordPress
The Jeg Elementor Kit plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via SVG File uploads in all versions up to, and including, 2.6.7 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.

AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The Jeg Elementor Kit plugin for WordPress suffers from a stored XSS vulnerability (CWE-79) due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation. Specifically, SVG file uploads are not properly sanitized or escaped, enabling authenticated users with Author-level privileges or above to embed arbitrary JavaScript code. This code executes in the context of users viewing the SVG, potentially leading to session hijacking or other script-based attacks. The vulnerability affects all versions up to 2.6.7 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.4 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N).
Potential Impact
An attacker with Author-level access or higher can inject malicious scripts via SVG file uploads that execute in the browsers of users who view the SVG. This can lead to partial confidentiality and integrity loss of user data within the affected site context. There is no impact on availability. The vulnerability requires authenticated access and does not require user interaction beyond viewing the SVG file.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict Author-level user permissions to trusted users only and consider disabling SVG uploads if possible to reduce risk. Monitor for updates from the vendor regarding patches or official mitigations.
