Description
The Element Pack Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Cursor Effects settings in all versions up to, and including, 8.8.6 due to the plugin's front-end script building the cursor markup, including the cursor image URL, from saved element settings as an HTML string without escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above who can edit with Elementor, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
