CVE-2025-0321: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in wpmet ElementsKit Pro
The ElementsKit Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to DOM-Based Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘url’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.7.8 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-0321 is a DOM-Based Stored Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability in the ElementsKit Pro WordPress plugin (versions up to 3.7.8). It allows authenticated users with Contributor-level privileges or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts through the 'url' parameter due to improper input sanitization and output escaping. This vulnerability can lead to script execution in the context of users who access the injected pages, potentially compromising confidentiality and integrity of user sessions. 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, no user interaction, and partial impact on confidentiality and integrity.
Potential Impact
An attacker with Contributor-level access or higher can inject malicious scripts that execute in the browsers of users viewing the compromised pages. This can lead to partial disclosure of information and modification of data within the affected web application context. There is no impact on availability. The vulnerability affects the confidentiality and integrity of user sessions and data.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict Contributor-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or limiting use of the affected 'url' parameter functionality. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply patches promptly once released.
