The Elementor Addon Elements plugin for WordPress contains a Stored Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability (CVE-2024-2092) in its Twitter Widget component, affecting all versions up to and including 1.13.3. The vulnerability stems from insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes (NVD).

The vulnerability is classified as CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation) with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 5.4 (Medium) according to NVD's assessment. The attack vector is network-based (AV:N) with low attack complexity (AC:L), requiring low privileges (PR:L) and user interaction (UI:R) (NVD).

When exploited, this vulnerability allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level permissions or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages. These malicious scripts will execute whenever a user accesses the compromised page (NVD).
