- Severity: no CVSS score reported
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 4.1.11
- Published: 2021-06-14 · Updated: 2024-08-03

## Affected

- Unknown The Plus Addons for Elementor Page Builder: from 4.1.11, fixed in 4.1.11

## Description

The Plus Addons for Elementor Page Builder WordPress plugin before 4.1.11 did not properly check that a user requesting a password reset was the legitimate user, allowing an attacker to send an arbitrary reset password email to a registered user on behalf of the WordPress site. Such issue could be chained with an open redirect (CVE-2021-24358) in version below 4.1.10, to include a crafted password reset link in the email, which would lead to an account takeover.
