What the vulnerability does
01Description
The Ultra Addons Lite for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.8 via the 'ut_elementor' 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 password protected, private, or draft posts that they should not have access to.
