Description
The Happy Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'ha_page_custom_js' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.20.3 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, despite the intended role restriction of Custom JS to Administrators.

AI Analysis

Impact

The Happy Addons for Elementor plugin is vulnerable to stored cross‑site scripting through the ha_page_custom_js parameter because it does not properly sanitize or escape input. Authenticated users with Contributor level or higher can inject arbitrary JavaScript that will execute whenever any visitor views a page containing the injected script. This bypasses the intended administrator‑only restriction on custom JavaScript, allowing exploits such as credential theft, session hijacking, or site defacement.

Affected Systems

All versions of Happy Addons for Elementor released by The Happy Monster up to and including version 3.20.3 are affected. The vulnerability exists in the Custom JS extension, which accepts input from the ha_page_custom_js parameter without proper sanitization.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS base score is 6.4, indicating moderate severity. The EPSS score is less than 1 %, suggesting the likelihood of exploitation is low. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV. The attack requires authentication with at least Contributor privileges, so it is an authenticated stored XSS that can impact any organic traffic to the affected WordPress site.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update to Happy Addons for Elementor version 3.20.4 or later, which removes the unsafe input handling in the Custom JS extension.
  • If an update cannot be applied immediately, revoke Contributor or higher roles from users who do not need to use Custom JS, or downgrade the Custom JS feature to Administrator only by adjusting plugin settings or code.
  • Manually inspect and sanitize or delete any stored custom JavaScript code that may contain malicious content in existing pages.
