Description

The The Pack Elementor addon plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's Typing Letter widget in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. 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.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2025-8214 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the The Pack Elementor addon for WordPress, specifically affecting the Typing Letter widget. The issue stems from improper neutralization of input during web page generation, allowing authenticated users with contributor-level privileges or higher to inject malicious scripts via insufficiently sanitized user input. These scripts execute when any user accesses the compromised page, potentially leading to session hijacking or other script-based attacks. The vulnerability affects all versions up to 2.1.5 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). No patch or official fix has been documented in the provided data.

Potential Impact

An attacker with contributor-level or higher access can inject persistent malicious scripts into pages using the Typing Letter widget. These scripts execute in the context of users who visit the injected pages, potentially leading to information disclosure and integrity impacts such as session hijacking or unauthorized actions. Availability is not affected. The vulnerability requires authentication but has low attack complexity and no user interaction is needed once the script is injected. The vulnerability affects confidentiality and integrity with a medium severity rating.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, limit contributor-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or removing the Typing Letter widget in The Pack Elementor addon to prevent exploitation. Monitor for updates from the vendor regarding patches or official mitigations.
