Arbitrary File Upload in Royal Addons for Elementor Enables RCE

Publication date: 2026-03-11

Last updated on: 2026-03-11

Assigner: Wordfence

Description
The Royal Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file upload in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.1049. This is due to insufficient file type validation detecting files named main.php, allowing a file with such a name to bypass sanitization. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.

Executive Summary

The Royal Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress has a vulnerability in all versions up to and including 1.7.1049 that allows arbitrary file uploads. This happens because the plugin does not properly validate file types, specifically failing to detect files named main.php. As a result, an authenticated attacker with author-level access or higher can upload files to the server that should normally be blocked.

This flaw can potentially allow the attacker to execute remote code on the affected server by uploading malicious files.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can have serious impacts including unauthorized remote code execution on your WordPress site. An attacker with author-level access could upload malicious files, potentially gaining control over the server, modifying site content, stealing data, or launching further attacks.

The CVSS score of 8.8 indicates a high severity, meaning the vulnerability is relatively easy to exploit and can lead to significant confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts.
