Contributor Local File Inclusion in Element Pack Pro <= 9.0.6 versions.

AnalysisAI

Local file inclusion in the Element Pack Pro WordPress plugin (versions 9.0.6 and earlier) allows authenticated contributors to read or include arbitrary server-side files via insufficient validation of a file path parameter, mapped to CWE-98 (improper control of filename for include/require). The flaw was reported through Patchstack and affects bdthemes' Element Pack Pro, a widely deployed Elementor add-on; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.

Technical ContextAI

Element Pack Pro is a commercial Elementor extension by bdthemes that adds widgets and templates to WordPress sites, identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:bdthemes:element_pack_pro. CWE-98 describes improper control of filename for PHP include/require statements, meaning user-controlled input flows into a PHP file inclusion call without adequate sanitization or allow-listing. In practice this typically manifests as a widget, template loader, or AJAX handler that accepts a path or template name and concatenates it into an include()/require() call, permitting traversal into arbitrary local PHP or text files reachable by the web server's user.

RemediationAI

Patch available per vendor advisory - update Element Pack Pro to a version newer than 9.0.6 as published by bdthemes, with the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/bdthemes-element-pack/vulnerability/wordpress-element-pack-pro-plugin-9-0-6-local-file-inclusion-vulnerability tracking the fixed release. As compensating controls until patching, tighten WordPress role policy so contributor and lower roles cannot be self-registered (set Settings > General > Membership off, or restrict via a registration plugin), audit existing contributor accounts and disable unused ones, and apply a virtual patch or WAF rule (Patchstack, Wordfence) that blocks traversal sequences and absolute paths against Element Pack Pro AJAX/REST endpoints; the trade-off is that aggressive path filtering can break legitimate template loading, so test in staging. If the plugin is non-essential, deactivate and remove it until the patched version is deployed.
