An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-50442 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Royal-Elementor-Addons Royal Elementor Addons. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50442/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50442/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-50442","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50442/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-50442","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pf54-3ggm-97rv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"An attacker can exploit an XML External Entity vulnerability in the Royal Elementor Addons plugin to read sensitive data or cause denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xxe"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"royal_elementor_addons","vendor":"royal-elementor-addons"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-611","name":"Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference"}],"description":"Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference vulnerability in WP Royal Royal Elementor Addons royal-elementor-addons allows XML Injection.This issue affects Royal Elementor Addons: from n/a through \u003c= 1.3.980.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"WordPress Royal Elementor Addons and Templates plugin \u003c= 1.3.980 - XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-50442","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"royal-elementor-addons:royal_elementor_addons","products":["royal-elementor-addons:royal_elementor_addons"],"type":"xxe","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress PostX plugin \u003c= 4.1.12 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-50443"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Cozy Blocks plugin \u003c= 2.0.15 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-50441"},"products":["Royal Elementor Addons"],"published":"2024-10-28","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Royal Elementor Addons and Templates \u003c 1.3.79 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Upload","id":"CVE-2023-5360","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-31"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"Royal Elementor Addons and Templates \u003c= 1.3.94 - Unauthenticated Limited File Upload","id":"CVE-2024-1567","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-02"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Royal Elementor Addons and Templates \u003c 1.3.81 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary Post Read","id":"CVE-2023-5922","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-01-16"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"WordPress Royal Elementor Addons plugin \u003c= 1.7.1001 - Reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-56226","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-31"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Royal Elementor Addons plugin \u003c= 1.7.1017 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-39361","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-07"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Royal Elementor Addons and Templates plugin \u003c= 1.3.987 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-56062","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-31"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["WP Royal"]},"summary":"An attacker can exploit an XML External Entity vulnerability in the Royal Elementor Addons plugin to read sensitive data or cause denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50442/"}
