High CVSS 7.2

CVE-2026-17565

NVD analysis in progress

The Animation Addons for Elementor WordPress plugin before 2.7.2 does not validate a user-supplied value before using it to build the host of a server-side HTTP request, allowing unauthenticated users to make the site issue requests to internal hosts and read the responses back.

What this means

Exposure
Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim.
Impact
An attacker can read some data and alter some data. The impact spreads beyond the vulnerable component into other parts of the system.
Weakness
The server issues a request to an attacker-chosen address, reaching into the internal network (SSRF).
Likelihood
Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.

What to doFold into the next patch cycle. Start with the instances exposed to the internet.
