CVE-2021-24256
The Elementor – Header, Footer & Blocks Template plugin before version 1.5.8 contains stored XSS vulnerabilities in two widgets that can be exploited by contributors and other lower-privileged users. Both the Page Title and Site Title widgets fail to properly validate the "heading_tag" parameter, allowing attackers to inject script tags or reference remote JavaScript files through parameter manipulation. When a page containing these malicious widgets is viewed or previewed, the injected or remotely hosted JavaScript executes in visitors' browsers, compromising site security.
