What the vulnerability does
01Description
The Droit Elementor Addons – Widgets, Blocks, Templates Library For Elementor Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's widgets in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes such as URL. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with contributor-level and above permissions to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms

An authenticated user with low privileges can inject malicious scripts into the plugin's widgets or settings. When other users view the affected content, the injected script executes in their browser, potentially allowing the attacker to steal session tokens, modify page content, or perform actions on their behalf.
