CVE-2024-3675: 
WordPress vulnerability analysis and mitigation

The Royal Elementor Addons and Templates plugin for WordPress (CVE-2024-3675) contains a Stored Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability affecting versions up to and including 1.3.971. The vulnerability exists in multiple components including the Flip Carousel, Flip Box, Post Grid, and Taxonomy List widgets (NVD).

The vulnerability stems from insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes in several plugin widgets. The issue has been assigned a CVSS v3.1 base score of 6.4 (Medium) with the vector string CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N, indicating network accessibility with low attack complexity and required privileges (Wordfence).

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

The vulnerability requires an authenticated user with at least contributor-level privileges to exploit. The attack can be executed remotely over the network with low complexity, making it relatively straightforward for attackers who meet the authentication prerequisite (Wordfence).

Users should update to a version newer than 1.3.971 to address this vulnerability. The issue has been fixed in subsequent releases of the Royal Elementor Addons and Templates plugin (NVD).
