Until a fix is available, restrict Contributor-level access to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious activity involving the 'elementor-template' shortcode. Avoid exposing sensitive content in private or draft posts accessible via this plugin.
Description
The BuddyPress Builder for Elementor – BuddyBuilder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.4 via the 'elementor-template' shortcode due to insufficient restrictions on which posts can be included. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to extract data from private or draft posts crated by Elementor that they should not have access to.
