The Avada theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via improper escaping of bbPress searches in versions up to, and including, 7.4.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

Not sure which version you run? Run a passive check — it reads public files only.

Remediation & mitigations

  1. Update to version 7.4.2, or a newer patched version
  2. Rotate administrator passwords and application secrets if the site ran a vulnerable version while publicly reachable.
