Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Elementor Addons, Widgets and Enhancements – Stax plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.4.3

Description The issue is related to Cross-Site Request Forgery due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the toggle widget function. This allows unauthenticated attackers to enable or disable Elementor widgets by tricking a site administrator into performing an action, such as clicking on a link.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.4.3, update to a version that includes the fix for the missing or incorrect nonce validation on the toggle widget function. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the toggle widget function to minimize the risk of exploitation.
