Impact

The JetWidgets For Elementor plugin for WordPress contains a stored cross‑site scripting flaw in its Image Comparison and Subscribe widgets. The flaw occurs because user‑supplied attributes are not properly sanitized or escaped, allowing an authenticated attacker with contributor-level access or higher to inject arbitrary JavaScript that will execute whenever a page containing the widget is viewed. This vulnerability is classified as CWE‑79 and permits the attacker to introduce malicious scripts into the site’s pages.

Affected Systems

Affected systems are WordPress sites that have the JetMonsters JetWidgets For Elementor plugin deployed, specifically all releases up to and including version 1.0.20. The vulnerability impacts the Image Comparison and Subscribe widget components, which can be placed anywhere on a page by users with contributor or higher privileges.

Risk and Exploitability
