CVE-2025-62041Network attack vector

Unauthenticated stored cross-site scripting

Published Nov 6, 2025 · Updated Nov 6, 2025

Stored XSS in CodexThemes TheGem (Elementor) 5.10.5.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject scripts into pages. Public advisories attribute the flaw to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping but do not disclose the affected request parameter, function, or template. No authentication is required; the stored payload executes when a visitor opens an injected page, allowing script-driven page changes and data access in that browser.
