CVE-2024-4634: Brainstormforce Elementor Header & Footer Builder

Medium severity, CVSS 5.4. EPSS: 0.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The Elementor Header & Footer Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘hfe_svg_mime_types’ function in versions up to, and including, 1.6.28 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Affected products

• Brainstormforce Elementor Header & Footer Builder: before 1.6.29 (fixed in 1.6.29)
