CVE-2021-24201

The Elementor Website Builder plugin before version 3.1.4 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the column element. Users with Contributor level permissions or higher can inject malicious JavaScript through the 'html_tag' parameter in modified save_builder requests, bypassing the control restrictions that normally limit tag selection. Since the injected code is neither sanitized nor escaped during output, the JavaScript executes whenever the affected page is viewed or previewed.
