The vulnerability exists because the handler's post status deny-list rejects `future`, `draft`, and `pending` but admits `inherit` \u2014 the status carried by every WordPress revision \u2014 allowing an attacker to substitute a revision ID for a live page ID, while a flawed \"last saved by administrator\" check reads `post_author` on revisions (which reflects the editing administrator) rather than the `_edit_last` meta that is never copied to revisions, and the nonce gate is rendered ineffective because any unauthenticated visitor can freely obtain a valid nonce via the `wp_ajax_nopriv_eael_get_token` endpoint. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register an account with a role as high as Editor \u2014 gaining capabilities including `edit_others_posts`, `publish_pages`, `upload_files`, and `unfiltered_html` \u2014 by naming a revision whose `_elementor_data` contains an elevated role an administrator previously saved and later reverted on a page bearing the Login/Register widget. Successful exploitation requires that the site has \"Anyone can register\" enabled and that an administrator has at some point saved and then reverted a non-default \"New User Role\" on an affected page.\nhttps://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-118205https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/a739cb9a-0b09-4303-8d4a-16fca1152adf?source=cvehttps://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/essential-addons-for-elementor-lite/tags/6.8.5/includes/Traits/Login_Registration.php#L1059https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/essential-addons-for-elementor-lite/tags/6.8.5/includes/Traits/Login_Registration.php#L887https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/essential-addons-for-elementor-lite/tags/6.8.5/includes/Traits/Login_Registration.php#L552https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/essential-addons-for-elementor-lite/tags/6.8.5/includes/Traits/Login_Registration.php#L2762https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/essential-addons-for-elementor-lite/tags/6.8.5/includes/Traits/Ajax_Handler.php#L1817https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/essential-addons-for-elementor-lite/tags/6.8.5/includes/Classes/Bootstrap.php#L216https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3770535/essential-addons-for-elementor-lite/trunk/includes/Traits/Login_Registration.php#wordpress
