What the vulnerability does
The Table Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘_id’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms
Table Addons for Elementor versions up to 2.1.2 contain a cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows authenticated users to inject malicious scripts. The vulnerability affects the plugin's table rendering functionality and can impact other users viewing affected pages. Site administrators should update to a version newer than 2.1.2 to remediate this issue.
What an attacker can do
Inject malicious JavaScript that executes in other users' browsers when they view affected pages.
Potential impact on your site
Other site users, including admins, may have their sessions compromised or data stolen via injected scripts.
Conditions required to exploit
Attacker must have a low-privilege account (e.g., subscriber or contributor) on the WordPress site.
