CVE-2023-2085
The Essential Blocks plugin for WordPress before version 4.0.7 contains a capability check vulnerability in its templates function that allows attackers with subscriber-level access to retrieve plugin template data. The vulnerability exists because the nonce verification is only performed when a nonce is actually supplied, meaning requests without a nonce bypass the security check entirely. Additionally, the absence of a proper capability restriction enables lower-privileged users to access functionality they should not be permitted to use.
Based on public CVE data (MITRE/NVD).
