What the vulnerability does
The Graphina – Elementor Charts and Graphs plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via multiple widgets in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. 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
Graphina – Charts and Graphs For Elementor versions up to 1.8.9 contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. An authenticated user with low privileges can inject malicious JavaScript into chart data or settings. When other users view the affected chart, the injected code runs in their browser with their permissions, potentially allowing the attacker to steal session tokens, modify page content, or perform actions on their behalf.
What an attacker can do
Inject and store malicious JavaScript that runs when other users view charts.
Potential impact on your site
Authenticated users can inject persistent malicious code affecting all site visitors who view compromised charts.
Conditions required to exploit
Attacker must have a low-privilege WordPress account (e.g., contributor or editor role).
