Summary
The Unlimited Elements for Elementor WordPress plugin before 2.0.21 does not sanitise file paths inside uploaded archives before extracting them, allowing authenticated users with access to its asset-management feature (Administrators by default, or Editors when a non-default setting is enabled) to write arbitrary files, including executable PHP, outside the intended upload directory on servers where the PHP zip extension is unavailable, leading to Remote Code Execution.
Risk Assessment
An authenticated attacker with appropriate privileges can write a malicious PHP file and execute code on the server, potentially leading to full site compromise.
Recommendation
Update the Unlimited Elements for Elementor plugin to version 2.0.21 or later to ensure sanitization of file paths in archives and prevent writing files outside the intended directory.
