What the vulnerability does
Anber Elementor Addon plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the $anber_item['button_link']['url']’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.1 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.
