The vulnerability identified as CVE-2025-22786 involves a path traversal flaw in the Element Invader ElementInvader Addons for Elementor plugin. Specifically, the issue arises from improper handling of the '.../...//' sequence in file paths, which enables an attacker to perform PHP Local File Inclusion. This can lead to unauthorized access to local files, potentially resulting in full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the affected system. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 1.2.6. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.5, indicating high severity, with network attack vector, high complexity, low privileges required, no user interaction, and full impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to include and execute arbitrary local PHP files on the server running the vulnerable plugin. This can lead to full compromise of the affected system's confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The high CVSS score reflects the significant risk posed by this vulnerability. However, there are no known exploits in the wild at this time.

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance.
