CVE-2026-8118 — Royal Addons for Elementor – Addons and Templates Kit for Elementor 1.7.1058 - 1.7.1059 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Arbitrary File Read via Data Table Widget CSV File Source

The Royal Addons for Elementor – Addons and Templates Kit for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Read in versions 1.7.1058 through 1.7.1059. This is due to the wpr_get_csv_handle() helper (introduced in version 1.7.1058 as part of the patch for CVE-2026-6229) falling back to is_readable() and fopen($source, 'r') on the attacker-controlled settings.table_upload_csv.url value when it does not parse as an HTTP URL, with no allow-list, traversal block, or extension check. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to save a crafted wpr-data-table widget through Elementor's save_builder endpoint and have the rendered preview return the line-by-line contents of any file readable by the PHP process, including wp-config.php.

Low

Who exploits it and how urgent it is

A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.

No exploitation signal in the sources consulted so far.

How the score was calculated

EPSS 0.4% (30-day exploitation probability)+5
Technical severity (medium)+3

The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).

Triage

Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.

Exploitation

Not confirmed

Not in CISA KEV — an absence of record, not proof it is unexploited.
