CVE-2026-2918 Details
Description
The Happy Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 3.21.0 via the `ha_condition_update` AJAX action. This is due to the `validate_reqeust()` method using `current_user_can('edit_posts', $template_id)` instead of `current_user_can('edit_post', $template_id)` — failing to perform object-level authorization. Additionally, the `ha_get_current_condition` AJAX action lacks a capability check. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to modify the display conditions of any published `ha_library` template. Because the `cond_to_html()` renderer outputs condition values into HTML attributes without proper escaping (using string concatenation instead of `esc_attr()`), an attacker can inject event handler attributes (e.g., `onmouseover`) that execute JavaScript when an administrator views the Template Conditions panel, resulting in Stored Cross-Site Scripting.
A vulnerability exists in the Happy Addons for Elementor WordPress plugin, specifically in versions up to and including 3.21.0. The issue is an Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) that allows authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access or higher to manipulate the display conditions of any published 'ha_library' template. This vulnerability arises because the 'ha_condition_update' AJAX action fails to implement proper object-level authorization, allowing unauthorized modifications. Additionally, the 'ha_get_current_condition' AJAX action lacks a capability check, further exacerbating the issue. Exploitation of this vulnerability leads to Stored Cross-Site Scripting, as injected JavaScript is executed when an administrator views the Template Conditions panel.
Users are advised to update the Happy Addons for Elementor plugin to version 3.21.1 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched.
