Description

WordPress Plugin Elementor Website Builder is prone to multiple vulnerabilities, including cross-site scripting and security bypass vulnerabilities. Exploiting these issues could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site, to steal cookie-based authentication credentials, or to perform otherwise restricted actions and subsequently read arbitrary attachment files. WordPress Plugin Elementor Website Builder version 3.16.4 is vulnerable; prior versions may also be affected.

Remediation
