CVE-2024-8482Network attack vector

Stored XSS via unescaped Team Member URL

Published Oct 8, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026

Stored XSS in Royal Addons for Elementor 1.3.986 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject scripts through Team Member URLs. The Team Member widget renders its user-controlled url setting into page output without sufficient sanitization or escaping. Contributor-level access is required; the stored script executes when a visitor opens the affected page and can act in that visitor's browser context.
