How the CVE Works:
CVE-2025-49262 is a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Sina Extension for Elementor (versions β€ 3.6.1). The flaw arises due to improper input sanitization during web page generation, allowing attackers to inject malicious JavaScript payloads into stored content. When a user accesses the compromised page, the script executes in their browser, potentially enabling session hijacking, defacement, or malware delivery. The attack requires no user interaction beyond viewing the infected page.
