CVE-2024-1465

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Elementor Addons by Livemesh plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 8.3.4

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the carousel skin attribute of the Posts Carousel widget. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages, which will execute when a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 8.3.4, update to a version higher than 8.3.4 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Posts Carousel widget for users with contributor-level access and above until a patch is available. Avoid using the carousel skin attribute in the Posts Carousel widget until the issue is resolved.
