Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions XLTab – Accordions and Tabs for Elementor Page Builder plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.4

Description The issue allows authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access and above to extract data from private or draft posts created by Elementor that they should not have access to, due to insufficient restrictions on which posts can be included via the XLTAB INSERT TPL shortcode.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.4, consider disabling the XLTAB INSERT TPL shortcode until a patch is available to prevent exploitation. Restrict access to private or draft posts created by Elementor to minimize the risk of data exposure.
