Stored script execution via unsanitized URL parameter
Published Jan 28, 2025 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
DOM-based stored XSS in Wpmet ElementsKit Pro 3.7.8 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute scripts via the url parameter. The plugin accepts the url parameter without sufficient input sanitization and later emits it to a page without adequate output escaping. Contributor-level access is required to store the payload, which runs in a visitor's browser whenever the injected page is opened.
