Description

The Zita Elementor Site Library plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to a missing capability check on the import functions found in inc/admin-ajax.php in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.1. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to upload malicious files that can be used for remote code execution.
