What is CVE-2026-84902?

The King Addons for Elementor plugin prior to version 51.1.81 lacks adequate object-level authorization checks during the process of importing template content. This oversight enables users with contributor-level permissions and higher to modify Elementor page content indiscriminately, including content managed by administrators. Additionally, the plugin allows for JavaScript code injection through widget settings that are output without proper escaping. This can lead to stored cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, which execute in the session of any user who views the modified page, potentially compromising user data and site security.

Affected Version(s)

King Addons for Elementor 0 < 51.1.81

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
