CVE-2023-2085

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Essential Blocks plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 4.0.6

Description The issue arises from a missing capability check on the templates function, allowing unauthorized use of functionality. This enables subscriber-level attackers to obtain plugin template information. Although a nonce check is present, it only executes when a nonce is provided, and skipping the nonce results in the verification being bypassed.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 4.0.6, update to a version that includes a capability check on the templates function to prevent unauthorized access. As a temporary workaround, consider implementing a custom capability check on the templates function until a patched version is available.
