Researcher Krzysztof Zając - CERT PL

Description

The Royal Elementor Addons plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a missing capability check during template creation in the function wpr_create_template in versions up to, and including, 1.3.55. Furthermore, the plugin does not verify whether the created post is a template. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level permissions and above, to create arbitrary posts and pages.

Wordfence blocked 22 attacks targeting this vulnerability in the past 24 hours.
