AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N
Network-reachable endpoint with low complexity, but requires an authenticated low-privilege account (PR:L); shortcode execution yields limited, site-dependent confidentiality and integrity impact, no availability impact.

Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
The Unlimited Elements for Elementor WordPress plugin before 2.0.21 does not check that a request to render widget output comes from a user allowed to make it, allowing users with a role as low as subscriber to have arbitrary WordPress shortcodes executed on the site. Version 2.0.18 removed the subscriber-level access, so from 2.0.18 onward the issue requires a Contributor role or above.
AnalysisAI
Authenticated WordPress users holding a role as low as Subscriber can cause arbitrary shortcodes to be executed on sites running Unlimited Elements for Elementor before 2.0.21, because the plugin's widget-rendering path never verifies that the requester is permitted to invoke it. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N) and our independent assessment keep this at moderate severity: it is an authorization bypass gated behind a low-privileged account, not an unauthenticated code-execution emergency, even though publicly available exploit code exists (WPScan). …
