What the vulnerability does
01Description
The Portfolio for Elementor & Image Gallery | PowerFolio plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Custom JS Attributes of Plugin's widgets in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.
