This flaw stems from inadequate validation of user-provided URLs within the \u003ccode\u003erender_csv_data()\u003c/code\u003e function. Attackers can bypass the validation by including \u0026lsquo;docs.google.com/spreadsheets\u0026rsquo; in a query parameter. The vulnerability is triggered because the plugin uses these URLs in \u003ccode\u003efopen()\u003c/code\u003e calls without implementing adequate safeguards to prevent access to internal or private network addresses. This vulnerability enables authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access or higher to craft malicious requests, potentially exposing sensitive internal data. Successful exploitation allows attackers to probe internal network resources, access configuration files, and potentially escalate attacks further.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"attack-chain\"\u003eAttack Chain\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn attacker authenticates to the WordPress site with Contributor-level access or higher.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe attacker crafts a malicious HTTP request targeting the vulnerable \u003ccode\u003erender_csv_data()\u003c/code\u003e function within the Royal Elementor Addons plugin.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe malicious request includes a user-supplied URL containing \u0026lsquo;docs.google.com/spreadsheets\u0026rsquo; within a query parameter to bypass initial validation checks.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe plugin\u0026rsquo;s \u003ccode\u003erender_csv_data()\u003c/code\u003e function receives the crafted URL without proper sanitization or validation against internal or private network addresses.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe \u003ccode\u003efopen()\u003c/code\u003e function is called with the attacker-controlled URL, initiating an outbound request from the WordPress server.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf the URL points to an internal resource, the WordPress server retrieves the resource content.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe attacker receives the content of the internal resource in the response from the WordPress server.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe attacker analyzes the retrieved content for sensitive information, such as configuration files, API keys, or internal service details.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ol\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"impact\"\u003eImpact\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuccessful exploitation of this SSRF vulnerability (CVE-2026-6229) can lead to the exposure of sensitive internal information, potentially impacting all organizations using the Royal Elementor Addons plugin for WordPress version 1.7.1057 and below.
