CVE-2026-14229

The ECS WordPress plugin before 4.3.8 does not check the post status or any capability when rendering an Elementor document requested through one of its AJAX actions, allowing unauthenticated users to retrieve the rendered content of unpublished (private, draft, pending) documents by supplying their identifier.

What this means for your business

  • An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, without a login, and without anyone at your company clicking anything.

What to do

  1. 1Ask your IT team or provider whether any of your systems use the affected product.
  2. 2If you do, follow the vendor's guidance. No patch reference has been published yet.
