Unlimited Elements For Elementor - Security Vulnerability (CVE-2026-116558)
CVE-2026-116558
The Unlimited Elements for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the '/ inside the attacker-controlled RSS feed body' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.26 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This is exploitable against any site whose administrator has placed the RSS Feed catalog widget pointing at a feed URL the attacker controls, as the plugin's own 2.0.25 escaping pre-processor intentionally excludes |raw prints in element content positions from its escaping logic, and XML entity-encoded payloads in feed item titles are decoded back to raw markup before reaching the sink.

Potential Impact
Severity is HIGH (CVSS 7.2). Depending on deployment context, affected components may be exposed to unauthorized actions or data integrity risk.
Exploitability Assessment
Exploitability is assessed as High based on remote code execution potential, low-bar exploit prerequisites.
Primary risk drivers: remote code execution potential, low-bar exploit prerequisites
Mitigation Recommendations
Validate affected product versions, prioritize patching, and monitor references for vendor remediation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, apply compensating controls and limit exposure of vulnerable surfaces.
Detection & Monitoring
Track authentication anomalies, unexpected file writes, and suspicious plugin API activity around affected components.
Business Impact Lens
AI risk score 80/100 (High, High) with priority P2 Urgent. Prioritize remediation where affected components process customer data, admin sessions, or Internet-exposed workflows.
