Unauthenticated Broken Authentication in PowerPack Pro for Elementor < v2.13.0 versions.

AnalysisAI

Authentication bypass in the PowerPack Pro for Elementor WordPress plugin (versions prior to 2.13.0) allows remote attackers to subvert authentication controls and gain unauthorized access with high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The flaw, reported by Patchstack and tracked as CVE-2026-42629, is classified as CWE-288 (Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel) and requires user interaction per the CVSS vector. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not currently listed in CISA KEV.

Technical ContextAI

PowerPack Pro for Elementor is a commercial add-on plugin extending the Elementor page builder for WordPress with additional widgets, modules, and templates. CWE-288 (Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel) indicates that the plugin exposes an authentication-relevant code path that fails to enforce the normal credential or session checks - typical patterns in WordPress add-ons include AJAX handlers, REST endpoints, or shortcode-processing functions that omit nonce/capability checks and can be invoked by unauthenticated visitors. The affected CPE (cpe:2.3:a:powerpackelements:powerpack_pro_for_elementor) covers all versions below 2.13.0.

RemediationAI

Upgrade PowerPack Pro for Elementor to version 2.13.0 or later via the WordPress plugin updater or the PowerPack Elements customer portal as the primary fix, referencing the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/powerpack-elements/vulnerability/wordpress-powerpack-pro-for-elementor-plugin-v2-13-0-broken-authentication-vulnerability. Where immediate patching is not possible, deploy a WordPress WAF rule (Patchstack, Wordfence, or equivalent) to virtually patch the vulnerable endpoints, and consider temporarily deactivating the plugin - at the cost of losing the PowerPack widgets currently used in published pages, which may break layout rendering until reactivated. Additionally, restrict administrative access via IP allowlisting on /wp-admin and audit recently created administrator accounts and modified content for signs of prior exploitation, accepting that legitimate remote admin workflows will be impacted.
