Official description

The Royal Elementor Addons plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 1.7.1057. This is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied URLs in the render_csv_data() function, which can be bypassed by including 'docs.google.com/spreadsheets' in a query parameter, and the subsequent use of these URLs in fopen() calls without blocking internal or private network addresses. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to make requests to arbitrary URLs and retrieve sensitive information from internal services.

Source: the CVE record as published by its numbering authority, via NVD and CVE.org.

The underlying weakness: Server-Side Request Forgery

The web server receives a URL or similar request from an upstream component and retrieves the contents of this URL, but it does not sufficiently ensure that the request is being sent to the expected destination.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • If there is a known list of applications, IP, hostname, and/or domains to which the product is allowed to communicate, then use allowlists to ensure that outgoing requests are restricted to these known entities. The allowlists could be in the application code or possibly enforced by firewalls or network segmentation.
  • If the product is expected to be able to connect to arbitrary IP addresses or domains, consider using a denylist that includes private network addresses, internal domain names, etc. The denylist could be in the application code or possibly enforced by firewalls or network segmentation.
