What the vulnerability does
01Description
The Testimonial Carousel For Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'show_line_text ' and 'slide_button_hover_animation' parameters in versions up to, and including, 10.1.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. CVE-2024-35713 is likely a duplicate of this issue.
