Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

Elicus WPMozo Addons Lite for Elementor plugin before version 1.1.0 contains a PHP Local File Inclusion vulnerability where improper control of filenames in include/require statements allows attackers to include arbitrary PHP files from the server, potentially leading to code execution.

MitigationUpdate WPMozo Addons Lite for Elementor to the latest patched version. If no update is available, disable the plugin and remove vulnerable code paths that permit unauthenticated file inclusion.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify WPMozo Addons Lite for Elementor is installed
    Check your WordPress plugins directory or navigate to wp-admin > Plugins to confirm the plugin is present on the site
    Affected if The plugin is installed and active on the WordPress site
  2. Determine installed plugin version
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins > WPMozo Addons Lite for Elementor and read the version number displayed, or inspect the plugin main file header for the Version field
    Affected if Version is below 1.1.0 (e.g., 1.0.9, 1.0.8, etc.)
  3. Identify vulnerable include/require code paths
    Search plugin files for include/require statements using dynamic variables or user-controllable input without proper sanitization, typically in files within the plugin directory
    Affected if Code contains include/require statements that use unsanitized request parameters or variables to construct file paths
  4. Check for unauthenticated access to vulnerable endpoints
    Review the plugin routing or AJAX handlers to determine if the file inclusion code can be reached without authentication
    Affected if The file inclusion functionality is accessible to unauthenticated users or low-privilege users

You are affected if WPMozo Addons Lite for Elementor is installed with a version prior to 1.1.0 and the vulnerable file inclusion code paths are present and accessible on your site
