CVE-2021-24255
The Essential Addons for Elementor Lite WordPress Plugin before 4.5.4 has two widgets that are vulnerable to stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) by lower-privileged users such as contributors, both via a similar method.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.59%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
