What the vulnerability does
The Cowidgets – Elementor Addons plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.0 via the 'ce_template' shortcode due to insufficient restrictions on which posts can be included. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to extract data from private or draft posts created by Elementor that they should not have access to.
