Deferred Deferred - Pending Action
Server-Side Request Forgery in Royal Elementor Addons Plugin

Publication date: 2026-05-02

Last updated on: 2026-05-05

Assigner: Wordfence

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.

Executive Summary

The Royal Elementor Addons plugin for WordPress has a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in versions up to and including 1.7.1057. This occurs because the plugin's render_csv_data() function does not properly validate user-supplied URLs. Attackers can bypass restrictions by including 'docs.google.com/spreadsheets' in a query parameter, allowing these URLs to be used in fopen() calls without blocking requests to internal or private network addresses.

As a result, authenticated users with Contributor-level access or higher can make requests to arbitrary URLs, potentially retrieving sensitive information from internal services.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can allow an attacker with Contributor-level access or above to make unauthorized requests to internal or private network resources. This can lead to the exposure of sensitive information from internal services that are not normally accessible externally.

The impact includes potential data leakage and unauthorized access to internal systems, which could compromise confidentiality and integrity of data within the affected environment.

Compliance Impact

The vulnerability allows authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access and above to make requests to arbitrary URLs and retrieve sensitive information from internal services. This exposure of sensitive information could potentially impact compliance with data protection standards and regulations such as GDPR and HIPAA, which require safeguarding sensitive data from unauthorized access.

However, the provided context does not explicitly detail the specific compliance implications or how organizations should address these in relation to this vulnerability.
