MEDIUM CVE-2026-13407 Deferred

Royal Addons form submissions inject HTML into administrator notification emails

Royal Addons for Elementor before 1.7.1067 includes insufficiently sanitized and escaped form-widget values in administrator notification-email bodies. An unauthenticated visitor can submit HTML that changes the message presented to the administrator, providing a phishing or misleading-content primitive in a trusted notification. The export does not identify the form fields, submission action or email-rendering function, and does not establish JavaScript execution in an email client.

This CVE was published Sep 16, 2026 and is one of 83 known issues for this plugin.

Update, patch or deactivate.

Update Royal Addons for Elementor to 1.7.1067 or later. Escape submitted field values for the email-body context or render them as plain text; do not allow arbitrary submitted HTML to become notification markup. Treat unexpected links or instructions in prior form notifications as untrusted.

A safe version is available, so updating to that version or later is the preferred remediation. If an immediate update is not practical, consider a targeted application patch or temporarily restricting the affected functionality.

Deactivate only when warranted by your risk profile, or when advised by your hosting provider in the limited circumstances where the vulnerability cannot otherwise be mitigated. If you’re unsure which action is appropriate, contact Fused or your hosting provider for guidance.
