AI Analysis

Impact

The Easy Elementor Addons plugin contains a DOM‑based Cross‑Site Scripting flaw that allows an attacker to inject or execute arbitrary client‑side scripts when a user visits an affected page. This can lead to theft of session cookies, defacement of the site, or redirection to malicious domains. The weakness is identified as CWE‑79. No mention of privilege escalation or server‑side compromise is made in the description.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects the Easy Elementor Addons plugin released by hashthemes. All versions up to and including 2.2.6 are vulnerable; the text states "from n/a through <= 2.2.6", indicating that any release before or equal to 2.2.6 is impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.5 indicates a moderate severity, and the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a very low probability of widespread exploitation at present. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. It is inferred that the attack requires a user to load a page containing the vulnerable code, with no special authentication or privilege needed. An attacker could embed malicious JavaScript through crafted URLs or injected content, leading to XSS execution in the victim's browser.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Easy Elementor Addons to the latest release (at least 2.2.7 or newer) as soon as possible.
  • If immediate upgrade is not feasible, disable or remove the plugin from the site to eliminate the attack surface.
  • Implement a Content Security Policy that restricts script sources to trusted origins to mitigate the impact of any remaining XSS payloads.
  • Validate and sanitize all user‑supplied input on both client and server sides to prevent future DOM‑based injection flaws.
  • Monitor web traffic for anomalous script execution patterns or suspicious requests that could indicate exploitation attempts.
