CVE-2020-26596
The Dynamic OOO widget for the Elementor Pro plugin through 3.0.5 for WordPress allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code because only the Editor role is needed to upload executable PHP code via the PHP Raw snippet.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (5.70%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
