Technical details
This is an unauthenticated arbitrary file upload vulnerability in Piotnet Addons for Elementor Pro versions 7.1.67 and earlier. The vulnerable component fails to validate file uploads on a publicly accessible endpoint, allowing any attacker to upload malicious PHP or other executable files without authentication. An attacker can exploit this to upload a webshell, execute arbitrary code on the server, and achieve remote code execution (RCE) with the privileges of the web server process. User interaction is required—the exploit must be initiated via a privileged user performing an action such as clicking a link or visiting a crafted page—but the initial upload endpoint itself is unauthenticated. No official patch has been released as of the advisory date; temporary mitigation via Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules is recommended.
