Official Description
The HT Mega – Absolute Addons For Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 2.9.1 via the 'get_post_data' function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to extract sensitive data including the content of private, password-protected, and draft posts and pages.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2025-8401 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
