Description

The Dynific Addons for Elementor (formerly Anywhere Elementor) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'q' parameter of the ae_prev_post AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 1.3.0. This is due to the search term being concatenated into the posts_where clause after only esc_like(), which does not escape quotes, and to the handler checking only a nonce that is printed to every front-end visitor, with no capability check. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries to existing queries and extract sensitive information from the database.
