What the vulnerability does
01Description
The Premium Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's menu and shape widgets in all versions up to, and including, 4.10.30 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes.
