CVE-2026-8118Network attack vector

Authenticated file read via unchecked CSV path

Published Jun 19, 2026 · Updated Jun 19, 2026

Arbitrary file read in Royal Addons for Elementor 1.7.1058 through 1.7.1059 allows remote authenticated users to read server files. The wpr_get_csv_handle() helper treats an attacker-controlled table_upload_csv.url value that is not an HTTP URL as a local path and passes it to is_readable() and fopen() without an allowlist, traversal restriction, or extension check. Contributor-level access is required to save a crafted Data Table widget through Elementor, after which its rendered preview returns files readable by the PHP process, including WordPress configuration secrets.
