CVE-2025-13141 Details
Description
The HT Mega – Absolute Addons For Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's Gutenberg blocks in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.0 due to insufficient input validation on user-supplied HTML tag names. This is due to the lack of a tag name whitelist allowing dangerous tags like 'script', 'iframe', and 'object' to be injected even though tag_escape() is used for sanitization. While some blocks use esc_html() for content, this can be bypassed using JavaScript encoding techniques (unquoted strings, backticks, String.fromCharCode()). 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 accesses an injected page.
A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in the HT Mega – Absolute Addons For Elementor plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions through 3.0.0. The issue arises from inadequate input validation of user-supplied HTML tag names, which allows the injection of harmful tags such as 'script', 'iframe', and 'object'. Although the plugin attempts to sanitize inputs using tag_escape(), this measure can be circumvented with JavaScript encoding techniques. As a result, authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher can inject arbitrary scripts into pages, where they will execute when a user views the affected page.
Users are advised to update the plugin to version 3.0.1 or a newer patched version.
