| Exploitation Conditions | Per the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), no authentication or user interaction is required: a remote unauthenticated attacker can trigger the SSRF against any site running LA-Studio Element Kit for Elementor version 1.6.2 or earlier. The limiting factors are that the target WordPress site must have this specific Elementor add-on plugin installed and active at a vulnerable version, and realistic impact depends on reachable internal services or metadata endpoints behind the server; the exact plugin feature or request parameter that performs the server-side fetch is not specified in the available Patchstack reference and should be confirmed against the vendor advisory. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.2 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N) from Patchstack indicates a network-exploitable, low-complexity SSRF that per the vector requires NO authentication (PR:N) and no user interaction, with a scope change (S:C) and low confidentiality and integrity impact. Despite the HIGH 7.2 rating, the real-world priority is tempered: there is no EPSS score provided, the issue is NOT in CISA KEV, and no public proof-of-concept is referenced - the status is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. The PR:N (unauthenticated) rating is notable and somewhat atypical for Patchstack-reported WordPress add-on SSRFs, many of which require authenticated access; the single Patchstack reference does not detail the exploitable endpoint, so this unauthenticated assumption should be verified against the vendor advisory. Overall this is a genuine but moderate-risk SSRF - meaningful because SSRF against WordPress plugins is a common pivot (internal network scanning, cloud metadata access), but currently showing no evidence of active or automated exploitation. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker sends a crafted request to a vulnerable LA-Studio Element Kit endpoint that fetches a user-supplied URL server-side, coercing the WordPress server to make outbound requests to attacker-chosen internal or external destinations. This can be used to probe internal services, reach cloud instance metadata endpoints, or relay requests through the trusted server. No public proof-of-concept is referenced, and per CVSS the attack is network-based and low-complexity with no authentication required. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 01, 2026
Server-side request forgery (SSRF) in LA-Studio Element Kit for Elementor through version 1.6.2 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to make the WordPress server issue arbitrary HTTP(S) requests to internal or external resources. Per the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N), no authentication or user interaction is required, and the scope change (S:C) with low confidentiality and integrity impact reflects that the attacker can pivot through the server to reach otherwise inaccessible services. No public exploit code or active exploitation is identified at time of analysis; risk is elevated for sites that expose cloud metadata endpoints or internal services to the WordPress host.
RemediationAI
No fixed version is specified in the provided Patchstack advisory, so administrators should consult the vendor's site or the Patchstack entry for an update beyond 1.6.2 and apply it as soon as it becomes available. If no update is immediately available, disable the LA-Studio Element Kit for Elementor plugin if it is not essential; this removes the vulnerable code but loses the Elementor widgets it provides. As a compensating control, enforce strict egress filtering on the WordPress server to block outbound requests to internal address ranges (127.0.0.0/8, 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 192.168.0.0/16, 169.254.169.254) - the trade-off is that this may disrupt legitimate integrations that rely on external services. A web application firewall with SSRF-specific rules can help block malicious requests, though it may produce false positives and should be tuned. Additionally, restrict WordPress administrative access and monitor server logs for anomalous outbound connections.

Technical ContextAI · show details
This is a CWE-918 server-side request forgery flaw in the WordPress plugin LA-Studio Element Kit for Elementor, an add-on that supplies Elementor page-builder widgets. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:la-studio:la-studio_element_kit_for_elementor:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms that all versions through 1.6.2 are affected. SSRF occurs when a plugin feature accepts a user-supplied URL and performs a server-side HTTP request without adequately validating or restricting the destination. Because the CVSS vector indicates network exploitability (AV:N), low complexity (AC:L), no privileges (PR:N), and no user interaction (UI:N), a remote unauthenticated attacker can trigger the vulnerable request. The scope change (S:C) suggests the vulnerable component can affect resources beyond its security scope, such as internal network hosts or cloud instance metadata services. The exact vulnerable parameter or widget is not specified in the available Patchstack reference and should be confirmed against the vendor advisory.

DescriptionCVE.org
Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in LA-Studio LA-Studio Element Kit for Elementor lastudio-element-kit allows Server Side Request Forgery.This issue affects LA-Studio Element Kit for Elementor: from n/a through 1.6.2.
Executive ViewAI
Every WordPress site running the LA-Studio Element Kit for Elementor plugin at version 1.6.2 or earlier is exposed to an unauthenticated server-side request forgery flaw, meaning anyone on the internet can compel the web server to fetch internal resources on their behalf. Because no vendor fix is available, affected sites remain exposed indefinitely, and the practical risk is concentrated in cloud-hosted environments where a pivoted request could reach metadata services, internal admin panels, or backend APIs that are not otherwise internet-facing. Leadership should treat this as a fleet-wide exposure requiring either immediate mitigation or removal of the plugin.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: deactivate or remove the LA-Studio Element Kit for Elementor plugin; enforce cloud instance metadata protections (IMDSv2 or equivalent) and block egress to internal, loopback, and link-local address ranges from the WordPress host; deploy WAF or reverse-proxy rules filtering SSRF-style requests; restrict outbound network access from web servers to an explicit allowlist; and monitor web server and egress logs for anomalous internal-address requests.
