Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Contributor Sensitive Data Exposure in Elementor Website Builder <= 4.1.3 versions.

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 · moderate confidence

This is a sensitive data exposure vulnerability in Elementor Website Builder affecting versions 4.1.3 and earlier. The vulnerability allows users with Contributor-level permissions to access sensitive data that should be restricted to higher-privilege roles, representing a broken access control issue.

MitigationUpdate Elementor Website Builder to a version newer than 4.1.3. If immediate update is not possible, review and restrict Contributor role permissions to prevent access to sensitive content or consider role-based access control plugins.

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. Identify Elementor version
    Access WordPress admin dashboard and navigate to Elementor > About, or check the installed plugin file header in wp-content/plugins/elementor/elementor.php for the 'Version' comment
    Affected if The displayed version is 4.1.3 or earlier
  2. Verify Contributor role presence
    In WordPress admin, go to Users > Users List and check for any user accounts assigned the Contributor role
    Affected if At least one user account with Contributor role exists on the site
  3. Test Contributor access to Elementor content
    Log in as a Contributor user and attempt to access Elementor-created pages, posts, or templates that are set to private or only visible to higher roles; check if sensitive data is displayed
    Affected if Contributor users can view, edit, or export content that should be restricted to Editors or Administrators

You are affected if Elementor version is 4.1.3 or earlier AND your site has Contributor-level users who can access sensitive content that should require higher privileges.
