Recommended action

Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

Elementor 的 Essential Addons 插件在 6.8.8 版本之前未能正确限制谁可以设置通过其注册表单创建账户时所分配的权限角色。这导致拥有“作者（Author）”级别或更高权限的已认证用户，能够迫使新注册的账户（包括未认证访客通过公开注册表单创建的账户）被赋予更高的角色，例如“编辑（Editor）”。此问题是 CVE-2026-5193 的不完整修复：在 6.6.0 版本中引入的角色验证控制机制可被低权限用户绕过，因此 6.6.0 至 6.8.7 版本即使已针对该漏洞公告进行了修补，仍然存在

Vulnerability Title

Essential Addons for Elementor 6.6.0 - 6.8.7 - Author+ Privilege Escalation via register_user_role

Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5

Vulnerability Description

The Essential Addons for Elementor WordPress plugin before 6.8.8 does not correctly restrict who may set the role assigned to accounts created through its registration form, allowing authenticated users with Author-level access and above to cause newly registered accounts, including those created by unauthenticated visitors through the public registration form, to be granted a higher role such as Editor. This is an incomplete fix of CVE-2026-5193: the role-validation control added in 6.6.0 can be circumvented by a lower-privileged user, so versions 6.6.0 through 6.8.7 remain affected even on sites that are patched against that advisory.
