## Description

The Addon Elements for Elementor (formerly Elementor Addon Elements) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Info Circle widget's autoplay and change duration settings in all versions up to, and including, 1.14.5 due to insufficient output escaping. These settings were echoed into the data-autoplay and data-delay HTML attributes without 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.
