Essential Addons for Elementor <= 6.7.1 - Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation
high ✓ patched
cvss score 7.3
cwe CWE-269: Improper Privilege Management
published Aug 12, 2026
The Essential Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in versions up to, and including, 6.7.1. This is due to missing validation against reserved wp_insert_user() data keys (such as 'role') when building the custom profile fields array, allowing user-controlled field labels to overwrite core user properties via mass assignment. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register as a new user with an arbitrary role, including administrator, by submitting a custom profile field whose label slugifies to 'role' (or another reserved wp_insert_user key), causing the value to be passed directly to wp_insert_user().

Essential Addons for Elementor <= 6.6.10 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Account Takeover via Email Header Injection
high ✓ patched
cvss score 8.8
cwe CWE-640: Weak Password Recovery Mechanism for Forgotten Password
published Jul 10, 2026
The Essential Addons for Elementor – Popular Elementor Templates & Widgets plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authenticated Account Takeover via Email Header Injection in all versions up to, and including, 6.6.10. This is due to insufficient server-side validation of a Login/Register widget setting used to construct outgoing email headers — the allowed-values restriction is enforced only in the client-side editor UI and not on the server, and the applied sanitization does not strip or encode CR/LF characters, allowing CRLF sequences stored in that setting to survive into raw mail headers. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject an additional Bcc header into the WordPress administrator's password-reset notification email, receive a copy of a valid administrator password-reset link, and achieve full administrator account takeover.

The Essential Addons for Elementor – Popular Elementor Templates & Widgets plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all versions up to, and including, 6.5.13. This is due to insufficient role validation in the 'register_user' function, which only blocks the 'administrator' role.
