CVE-2024-8961

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: The Essential Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 6.0.7

Description: The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the nomore items text parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows 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.

Recommendations: For versions up to, and including, 6.0.7, update to a version later than 6.0.7 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the nomore items text parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation. Additionally, limiting Contributor-level access and above can help reduce the attack surface until a patch is applied.
