What the vulnerability does
The Borderless – Widgets, Elements, Templates and Toolkit for Elementor & Gutenberg plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.0 via the 'write_config' function. This is due to a lack of sanitization on an imported JSON file. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to execute code on the server.
Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms
Borderless – Addons and Templates for Elementor versions 1.6.0 and earlier contain a code injection vulnerability. An authenticated administrator can inject and execute arbitrary PHP code through the plugin's template or addon functionality. This allows complete control over the site's backend and data. Update to a version newer than 1.6.0 immediately.
What an attacker can do
Run arbitrary PHP code on the site with full site access and control.
Potential impact on your site
A compromised admin account can execute any code, steal data, modify content, or take the site offline.
Conditions required to exploit
