Stored XSS via unescaped inline click handler
Published Dec 9, 2025 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Stored XSS in Make Section & Column Clickable For Elementor 2.4 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute browser scripts. The frontend renderer places a stored wrapper URL into an inline onclick handler without adequately sanitizing and escaping the URL and its attributes. Authenticated users able to edit Elementor sections or columns can persist the payload; it runs in the site origin when a visitor loads the rendered page, enabling sensitive-data access or actions with that visitor’s permissions.
