Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Plus Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 5.4.1

Description The issue allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above to include and execute arbitrary files on the server via the Clients widget. This enables the execution of any PHP code in those files, which can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution, especially in cases where images and other “safe” file types can be uploaded and included.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 5.4.1, update to a version that fixes this issue to prevent Local File Inclusion attacks. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Clients widget until a patch is available. Avoid using the Clients widget in the affected plugin until the issue is resolved.
