Summary
The Prime Slider – Addons For Elementor (Revolution of a slider, Hero Slider, Post Slider and Ecommerce Slider) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'social_link_title' parameter of the 'blog' widget in all versions up to, and including, 3.16.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. 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.
