Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
This is a broken access control flaw in the WordPress Unlimited Elements For Elementor plugin through version 1.5.109. A logged-in low-privilege user may access information they should not. The cited record rates impact as medium, with confidentiality impact only and no integrity or availability impact stated.
Executive priority
Treat as a scheduled remediation item, not an emergency, unless affected sites allow broad user registration or untrusted logins. Prioritize confirming whether the plugin is deployed, then update based on vendor guidance.
Technical view
CVE-2024-35674 is CWE-862 Missing Authorization in package unlimited-elements-for-elementor. CVSS 3.1 is 4.3: network reachable, low attack complexity, low privileges required, no user interaction, unchanged scope, low confidentiality impact, no integrity or availability impact. The sources do not identify the exact vulnerable endpoint or data exposed.
Likely exposure
Exposure is limited to WordPress sites running Unlimited Elements For Elementor at version 1.5.109 or earlier. Risk is higher where untrusted users can create or hold low-privilege WordPress accounts. Sites without this plugin, or with versions outside the affected range, are not shown as affected by the provided sources.
Exploitation context
The provided sources do not report active exploitation, and the CVE is not listed as KEV in the bundle. The CVSS vector indicates remote exploitation is possible by a low-privilege authenticated user without user interaction. No public exploit details are included in the supplied evidence.
Researcher notes
Evidence is limited to the CVE and Patchstack database references. The source bundle does not describe the vulnerable function, endpoint, authorization check, exploit status, or fixed version. Validation should avoid assumptions beyond plugin presence, affected version range, and authenticated low-privilege exposure.
Mitigation direction
- Inventory WordPress sites for the Unlimited Elements For Elementor plugin and installed version.
- If version is 1.5.109 or earlier, check vendor or Patchstack guidance for the fixed release.
- Update only to a vendor-confirmed fixed version, following normal WordPress change control.
- Restrict or review low-privilege WordPress accounts until remediation is complete.
- Disable the plugin if it is unnecessary and business impact is acceptable.
Validation and detection
- Confirm plugin presence and exact version on every managed WordPress site.
- Check whether public or untrusted user registration is enabled on affected sites.
- Review WordPress users with low-privilege roles for unnecessary access.
- After remediation, verify the affected plugin version is no longer deployed.
- Record exceptions where vendor guidance or patch availability is still unclear.
