CVE-2026-102564

MEDIUM
Published Nov 7, 2026 Modified Nov 8, 2026 CWE-94

Description

The The Dynific Addons for Elementor (formerly Anywhere Elementor) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution in all versions up to, and including, 1.3.0 This is due to the software allowing users to execute an action that does not properly validate a value before running do_shortcode. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary shortcodes. Exploitation requires the target site to have a public post rendered through an AE template that includes the AE Post Comments widget, and for the attacker's comment to be visible on that page — a barrier removed once the attacker has a previously approved comment or when comment moderation is relaxed.
