Vulnerability Overview

The Unlimited Elements For Elementor (Free Widgets, Addons, Templates) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.5.109 due to missing restrictions on the getPostDataByObj() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to view password protected posts.

Technical Analysis

The vector marks this flaw as remotely reachable over the network, with low attack complexity — no special timing or configuration is needed, and no interaction from a victim user.

CWE-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor

Unlimited Elements For Elementor <= 1.5.109 carries this weakness at getPostDataByObj(), and reaching it takes an account at Contributor level or above. Sensitive information exposure means data the application intended to keep internal is returned to a caller who should not be able to see it.

The disclosed data — credentials, tokens, customer records or internal paths — is usually worth more as material for a follow-up attack than as an end in itself. For Unlimited Elements For Elementor the fix is 1.5.110: builds <= 1.5.109 are affected, anything from 1.5.110 onward is not.

Remediation

Update to version 1.5.110, or a newer patched version

How does WordSec protect against this?

The fix is the thing that ends this: Unlimited Elements For Elementor 1.5.110 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
