Vulnerability Overview

The DethemeKit For Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the URL parameter of the De Gallery widget in all versions up to and including 2.1.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user clicks on the injected link.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 2.1.6, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')) The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users.
