Elementor addon suites are security-relevant because they add a large amount of front-end rendering and stored widget configuration into WordPress. These plugins frequently process user-controlled strings (titles, labels, URLs, templates) and expose admin-side builders and settings that, if not defended correctly, can become paths to stored XSS, CSRF-driven configuration changes, privilege boundary issues, or information disclosure via misconfigured endpoints. Element Pack – Widgets, Templates & Addons for Elementor version 8.6.0 has successfully completed the CleanTalk Plugin Security Certification process and received PSC-2026-64644, confirming that the plugin was reviewed from a secure code perspective with attention to the most common exploitation paths for Elementor widget and template libraries.

| Version | 8.6.0 |
| Active installations | 100,000+ |
| Description | Element Pack is a powerful Elementor addon that extends the Elementor page builder with advanced Elementor widgets, templates, and design extensions. |
| Security | Successfully tested for: SQL Injection (SQLi) Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) – Stored & Reflected Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) Authentication Vulnerabilities Authentication Bypass Exploits Privilege Escalation Buffer Overflow Denial-of-Service (DoS) vectors Data Leakage Vulnerabilities Insecure Dependency Usage Remote Code Execution (RCE) Risks Unauthorized File Access Insufficient Injection Protection Information Disclosure via Misconfigured Endpoints |
| CleanTalk Certification | Proudly earned the “Plugin Security Certification” (PSC) from CleanTalk, indicating adherence to stringent security standards. |
| Additional Information | Teams can extend Elementor with the assurance of the “Plugin Security Certification” (PSC). As a best practice, restrict who can edit Elementor templates and global widgets, and treat any custom HTML/template-related fields as security-sensitive output. |

Key Features
Element Pack is positioned as a comprehensive toolkit for Elementor, combining a large widget catalog with template-driven site building. It includes 300+ widgets and extensions and a large library of ready-made Elementor templates, enabling teams to build landing pages, business sites, portfolios, and ecommerce layouts without custom development. It also provides higher-level site-building capabilities such as header and footer building, mega menu-style navigation workflows, WooCommerce-oriented widgets, and a variety of motion/interaction effects that are rendered on the front end. From a security standpoint, these capabilities matter because they store complex widget settings and templates in the database and then render them into multiple HTML contexts, which requires strict capability boundaries and consistent output encoding to prevent injection and content integrity issues.
Security Assurance
The CleanTalk Plugin Security Certification evaluation for Elementor addon suites focuses on attacker models that target stored configuration and rendered output. Typical abuse patterns include injecting JavaScript into widget settings, dynamic content fields, or template parameters that later render on public pages (stored XSS), forcing configuration changes via CSRF against administrators (enabling modules, changing template behavior, modifying global settings), and abusing weak capability checks to let lower-privileged roles access design and template controls they should not have. The review validates that state-changing actions are protected with nonce and CSRF defenses, that capability checks are enforced consistently at the handler level, and that values rendered into HTML and attribute contexts are output-encoded appropriately. It also considers leakage vectors via misconfigured endpoints and overly verbose diagnostics that could expose internal configuration metadata.
The plugin has been successfully tested for:
✅ Information Leakage Vulnerabilities
✅ SQL Injection Vulnerabilities
✅ Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) Attacks
✅ Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) Attacks
✅ Authentication & Authentication Bypass Vulnerabilities
✅ Privilege Escalation Vulnerabilities
✅ Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities
✅ Denial-of-Service (DoS) Vulnerabilities
✅ Data Leakage Vulnerabilities
✅ Insecure Dependencies
✅ Code Execution Vulnerabilities
✅ File Unauthorized Access Vulnerabilities
✅ Insufficient Injection Protection
Conclusion
With PSC-2026-64644, Element Pack – Widgets, Templates & Addons for Elementor version 8.6.0 demonstrates strong baseline security for the workflows that matter most in Elementor addon suites: controlled access to template and widget management, safe storage and rendering of configuration, and consistent protections against common WordPress vulnerability classes that target endpoints, handlers, and output contexts. This certification helps site owners extend Elementor with reduced risk that rich UI and template features become an unintended injection or authorization attack surface. As a best practice, keep template editing limited to trusted roles and maintain an update cadence for Elementor core and addon packages to preserve safe rendering behavior.
