CVE-2026-4362 PUBLISHED

ElementsKit Elementor Addons <= 3.8.2 - Missing Authorization to Unauthenticated Widget Content Overwrite

Assigner: Wordfence
Reserved: 17.03.2026 Published: 05.05.2026 Updated: 05.05.2026

The ElementsKit Elementor Addons plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the Live_Action::reset() function in all versions up to, and including, 3.8.2 The function is hooked to the WordPress init action and triggers when both post and action=elementor GET parameters are present, with no authentication or nonce verification. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to overwrite the Elementor content (_elementor_data) of any elementskit_widget custom post type by visiting a specially crafted URL. The widget's custom designs, text, and configurations are permanently replaced with a blank template.
