MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Initial Access The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires a WordPress site running Xpro Elementor Addons version 1.7.10 or earlier, AND a currently authenticated, privileged user (typically an administrator) who is tricked into interacting with attacker-controlled content (visiting a malicious page or clicking a crafted link) while their session is active (UI:R). The vulnerability stems from missing or improper anti-CSRF nonce validation on a plugin action. Limiting factors: the attacker cannot act without a logged-in victim performing the interaction, exploitation yields only the privileges of that victim, and no privileged standing is granted to the attacker directly (PR:N applies to the attacker, not the victim). The specific vulnerable feature/endpoint is not named in the description, so defenders should treat any sensitive plugin-controlled action as potentially reachable. |
| Impact | This is a CWE-352 Cross-Site Request Forgery flaw in the Xpro Elementor Addons WordPress plugin (versions through 1.7.10). The provided CVSS:3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, base 8.8) indicates network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation that requires no attacker privileges (PR:N) but DOES require victim interaction (UI:R) - characteristic of CSRF, where a logged-in user (typically an administrator) must be lured into triggering a forged request. The high C/I/A impacts (8.8) are consistent with Patchstack's scoring convention for CSRF that can reach sensitive admin actions, but note that real impact is gated entirely on tricking an authenticated, privileged user into interaction, which materially lowers practical risk versus a true unauthenticated RCE of the same score. Exploitation status: no public exploit identified at time of analysis - there is no EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no POC indicator in the provided data. The only source is the Patchstack/NVD reference. CONFLICTING/MISSING SIGNALS: the high 8.8 score contrasts sharply with the absence of any exploitation evidence (no KEV, no EPSS, no POC), suggesting this is a high-CVSS-but-currently-low-real-world-risk issue rather than an active threat. Overall priority is moderate: patch in routine cycles, prioritizing sites with high-privilege users exposed to untrusted web browsing. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker crafts a malicious web page or email containing a forged request targeting the plugin's vulnerable action and lures a logged-in WordPress administrator into visiting it. Because the request lacks proper anti-CSRF nonce validation, the victim's browser submits it with valid session cookies, causing an unauthorized state change under the admin's privileges. No public POC is identified in the provided data, and exploitation depends on the victim being authenticated and clicking the attacker-controlled link (UI:R). |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 22, 2026
Cross-site request forgery in Xpro Elementor Addons through 1.7.10 can trick a logged-in privileged WordPress user into performing unintended plugin actions; the attacker is unauthenticated (PR:N) but must persuade a victim to visit attacker-controlled content while their session is active (UI:R). Our independent assessment limits impact to low confidentiality and integrity with no availability effect, despite the supplied CVSS 3.1 score of 8.8. No public exploit code or confirmed active exploitation was identified in the provided intelligence.
RemediationAI
Upgrade Xpro Elementor Addons to a version later than 1.7.10 once the vendor releases a fixed build, and verify the applicable fixed version in the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/xpro-elementor-addons/vulnerability/wordpress-xpro-elementor-addons-plugin-1-7-10-cross-site-request-forgery-csrf-vulnerability?_s_id=cve; no exact fixed version is specified in the supplied data, so do not assume a particular release number. If an upgrade cannot be applied immediately, disable the plugin if its Elementor addons are not operationally required, accepting loss of those features; alternatively, restrict access to wp-admin and administrative actions by IP or VPN, accepting that legitimate remote administrators will be blocked unless they use the approved access path. Enforce least privilege so fewer users hold administrator sessions, and consider WAF rules that inspect state-changing requests to plugin endpoints for valid nonces or expected origins, recognizing that such rules require tuning and may produce false positives or miss plugin-specific request patterns.

Technical ContextAI · show details
This is a CWE-352 Cross-Site Request Forgery issue in a WordPress plugin that extends the Elementor page builder. CSRF arises when a sensitive state-changing action lacks a valid anti-CSRF nonce or equivalent origin check, so a browser carrying an authenticated WordPress session can be induced to submit an attacker-crafted request. The CVSS vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N indicates network reachability and no attacker authentication, but the attack depends on user interaction: a logged-in privileged user, typically an administrator, must visit a malicious page or click a crafted link. Because the affected endpoint or feature is not named, any plugin-controlled state-changing action should be treated as potentially reachable. No CPE identifiers were supplied; affected deployments are WordPress sites running Xpro Elementor Addons 1.7.10 or earlier.

Network CSRF needs no attacker privileges but requires victim interaction (UI:R); absent a named high-impact action, I assess limited confidentiality/integrity impact and no availability impact rather than the input's full C:H/I:H/A:H.

DescriptionCVE.org
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Xpro Xpro Elementor Addons xpro-elementor-addons allows Cross Site Request Forgery.This issue affects Xpro Elementor Addons: from n/a through 1.7.10.
Executive ViewAI
Sites running Xpro Elementor Addons versions through 1.7.10 face a high-severity cross-site request forgery flaw that could let an unauthenticated attacker trick a logged-in privileged WordPress user into unintended plugin actions, affecting site integrity and configuration. With no vendor patch currently available and no observed exploitation, leadership should prioritize inventory and access controls for affected WordPress deployments.
No vendor-released patch is available. Interim mitigations include restricting WordPress administrative access, enforcing least privilege and strong authentication, deploying WAF rules to block CSRF attempts against plugin endpoints, disabling the plugin where not essential, and monitoring for unexpected plugin configuration changes.
