Deeper analysis

CVE-2025-13067 is an arbitrary file upload vulnerability in the Royal Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 1.7.1049. The issue stems from insufficient file type validation that fails to properly detect files named main.php, enabling such files to bypass sanitization controls. This flaw, classified under CWE-434 (Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type), carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating high severity due to its potential for significant impact.

Authenticated attackers with author-level access or higher can exploit this vulnerability over the network with low complexity and no user interaction required. By uploading arbitrary files named main.php, they can place malicious content on the affected WordPress site's server, potentially leading to remote code execution.

Mitigation details are available in the referenced advisories, including the WordPress plugin trac changeset at https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3475656/royal-elementor-addons, which likely contains the patch, and Wordfence threat intelligence at https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/3edfc4af-2a28-4bdf-becf-018d9f656947?source=cve for additional guidance. Security practitioners should update to a patched version beyond 1.7.1049 and review access controls for author roles.
