## Description

The PowerPack Addons for Elementor (Free Widgets, Extensions and Templates) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery via the Advanced Charts widget's CSV file URL setting in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.2, due to the URL being fetched with wp_remote_get() and SSL verification disabled, with no host restriction and only a check that the URL ends in '.csv', which a query string satisfies. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above, who can edit content with Elementor, to make web requests to arbitrary locations from the web application, including internal services, and read parts of the responses rendered as chart labels and data.
