Last modified
CVE-2022-4256 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 4.8/10 on the CVSS scale. The All-in-One Addons for Elementor WordPress plugin before 2.4.4 does not sanitise and escape some of its settings, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup). EPSS estimates a 0.47% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
