WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Plus Addons for Elementor < 2.0.7 - Contributor+ Privilege Escalation

Description

The plugin does not ensure that users setting the default role to be used in the registration form (of the plugin) are allowed to do so, which would lead to privilege escalation once a post with the form is published (a contributor would need to have the post approved, while author and above can publish the post by themselves)
