What the vulnerability does
The Thim Elementor Kit plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘id’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.9 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
Thim Kit for Elementor versions up to 1.1.9 contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. An authenticated user with low privileges can inject malicious scripts that execute in the browsers of other site visitors, potentially compromising their sessions or stealing data. The vulnerability affects the site's scope, meaning the injected code can impact areas beyond the vulnerable component itself.
What an attacker can do
Inject malicious scripts that run in other users' browsers and steal their session data or perform actions on their behalf.
Potential impact on your site
Visitors and admins may have their sessions hijacked or be redirected to malicious sites; site reputation and user trust at risk.
Conditions required to exploit
Attacker must have a low-privilege authenticated account on the site (e.g., subscriber or contributor role).
