CVE-2026-48837Network attack vector

Authenticated data extraction via unprepared SQL query

Published May 25, 2026 · Updated May 25, 2026

SQL injection in Unlimited Elements For Elementor 2.0.8 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to extract database data via crafted input. The plugin appends an insufficiently escaped user-supplied parameter to an existing SQL query without adequate preparation; published sources do not identify the parameter or query-building function. Contributor-level WordPress access is required, and the disclosed blind-injection behavior exposes sensitive database contents without reported data modification.
