Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires an authenticated session on the target WordPress site: the CVSS vector specifies PR:L, so a low-privileged (authenticated) account is needed, which is the primary limiting factor. The affected software is the Unlimited Elements For Elementor plugin in versions up to and including 2.0.26, so a vulnerable version must be installed and active (and, being an Elementor add-on, Elementor is the deployment context). The specific feature, endpoint, or request parameter that controls the include filename is not described in the available sources; beyond the authentication requirement, no further non-default configuration is indicated (AC:L, UI:N), and impact is limited to disclosure of local file contents (C:H, I:N, A:N) with no integrity or availability effect.

Impact

This is a moderate-priority issue rather than an emergency. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N, base 6.5) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity flaw that requires some level of authentication (PR:L) and yields only a confidentiality impact (C:H, I:N, A:N) - consistent with a local file inclusion used for information disclosure rather than code execution. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no confirmed public exploit were supplied, so there is no evidence of active or at-scale exploitation at this time. The only decision signal is the vuln.today priority label 'this_month', which aligns with a serious-but-not-critical authenticated disclosure bug. One cross-source note: the CWE is CWE-98 ('PHP Remote File Inclusion'), but the description and tags describe Local File Inclusion only, so treat the 'remote file inclusion' classification as a labeling artifact rather than confirmation that remote URLs can be included. Overall this is a real but second-tier issue: high confidentiality impact on a widely used WordPress plugin, tempered by the authentication requirement and the absence of any exploitation or PoC evidence.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who already holds a low-privileged authenticated account on a WordPress site running this plugin sends a crafted request that manipulates a filename passed to a PHP include/require statement. Because the filename is not properly controlled, the server includes an unintended local file and returns its contents, disclosing sensitive data such as configuration or credential files. No public exploit code was identified at the time of analysis, and exploitation requires network access plus valid authentication.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 30, 2026

PHP local file inclusion in the Unlimited Elements For Elementor plugin (versions through 2.0.26) lets an authenticated low-privileged user on a WordPress site cause the plugin to include a filename they influence, disclosing the contents of local files. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N, C:H/I:N/A:N) confirms the main barrier is that a valid low-privilege account is needed; there is no integrity or availability impact, only confidentiality loss. This is a moderate-priority issue rather than an emergency - no CISA KEV entry, no public exploit reference, and the trigger details (the specific endpoint or parameter that controls the include path) are not described in the available sources, with no vendor patch version yet identified in the provided data.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch version is identified in the available data; the supplied evidence lists version 2.0.26 as the last affected release without naming a fixed version, so confirm the current release on the plugin's WordPress.org listing or the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/unlimited-elements-for-elementor/vulnerability/wordpress-unlimited-elements-for-elementor-free-widgets-addons-templates-plugin-2-0-26-local-file-inclusion-vulnerability and update as soon as a release above 2.0.26 is published. Because exploitation requires an authenticated low-privileged account (PR:L), the most effective interim control is reducing who can authenticate and what they can reach: audit user accounts, remove or downgrade unnecessary subscriber/contributor-level users, and restrict registration and role assignment so untrusted parties cannot obtain a session on the site. If the plugin's Elementor widgets are not in active use, deactivating and removing it eliminates the exposure entirely, at the cost of losing those widgets on existing pages. The specific feature or parameter that controls the include filename is not described in the available sources, so no targeted feature-disable workaround can be named; a WordPress-level hardening plugin or WAF rule set would have to be chosen without knowledge of the exact request pattern, and such filtering carries the usual risk of blocking legitimate plugin functionality.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The affected component is a WordPress plugin that extends Elementor with widgets, addons and templates, written in PHP. CWE-98 (Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program) describes the root cause class: a value that reaches a PHP include/require statement is not adequately constrained, so it can resolve to an unintended file. Here the outcome is classified as local file inclusion rather than remote file inclusion - the input influences which local path is included, exposing file contents rather than executing attacker-supplied code, consistent with the assessed impact of high confidentiality loss and no integrity or availability effect. The CPE identifies the affected package as unlimited_elements_for_elementor_(free_widgets,_addons,_templates) with no version constraints in the string itself, while the description bounds the affected range as all versions from n/a through 2.0.26. Because the plugin is an Elementor add-on, Elementor is the deployment context in which a vulnerable installation operates. The available sources do not specify which feature, AJAX action, shortcode or request parameter controls the included filename, so the exact request-level trigger is unverified.

Attack Technique

Local File Inclusion vulnerabilities occur when an application accepts user-controlled input to specify which file should be loaded or executed, typically through functions like PHP's `include()`, `require()`, or `fopen()`.

Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.
