CVE-2024-11601Network attack vector

Unauthenticated option updates via missing nonce validation

Published Nov 22, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026

Cross-site request forgery in wowDevs Sky Addons for Elementor 2.6.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to update WordPress options. The save_options() handler accepts a forged request without valid nonce verification and writes attacker-supplied array-valued settings as site options. Exploitation requires a site administrator to act on the forged request, and the write is limited to options whose values can be stored as arrays.
