## Description

The Element Pack Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the SVG Image widget and HTML parsed by the bundled UIkit components in all versions up to, and including, 8.8.9, due to the UIkit SVG component inlining remotely fetched SVG markup without sanitization and the UIkit HTML fragment sanitizer leaving iframes and URLs with embedded control characters (such as java&#9;script:) in place. 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, for example by pointing the SVG Image widget at an attacker-hosted SVG file.
