Description
The Master Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress has an authorization bypass vulnerability in all versions up to and including 3.2.2. This flaw allows authenticated users with contributor-level access or higher to modify or delete arbitrary WordPress posts by exploiting improper authorization checks related to popup management. The vulnerability arises because the plugin does not properly verify user permissions when handling actions involving popup IDs.
