CVE-2026-11380 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the JetWidgets For Elementor WordPress plugin. The flaw arises from improper neutralization of input in the animation_effect setting of the Animated Box widget, which is rendered inside an HTML class attribute without sufficient escaping or server-side validation. This allows authenticated attackers with author-level privileges or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute in the context of users visiting the injected pages. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 1.0.21. No official patch or remediation level has been provided in the available data.

An attacker with author-level access or higher can exploit this vulnerability to inject malicious scripts into pages, potentially leading to session hijacking, defacement, or other script-based attacks against users viewing the compromised pages. The vulnerability does not affect availability but impacts confidentiality and integrity to a limited extent as indicated by the CVSS vector (C:L/I:L/A:N).

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict author-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or avoiding use of the Animated Box widget's animation_effect setting. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply patches promptly once released.
