CVE-2024-4471 is a PHP Object Injection vulnerability affecting the "140+ Widgets | Best Addons For Elementor – FREE" plugin for WordPress, versions up to and including 1.4.3.1. This flaw allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level permissions or higher to inject PHP objects through deserialization of untrusted input in the 'export_content' function. The vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 8.0 (High), indicating a significant risk. While the plugin itself lacks a direct POP chain, if another plugin or theme on the system provides one, it could lead to severe impacts such as arbitrary file deletion, sensitive data retrieval, or remote code execution. The attack requires user interaction (UI:R) but has low attack complexity (AC:L). Currently, there is no evidence of active exploitation, nor are there publicly available exploit modules for Metasploit, Nuclei, or ExploitDB. Community discussion and media coverage are minimal, suggesting a low level of public awareness regarding this vulnerability.
