The advisory
The Royal Addons for Elementor WordPress plugin before 1.7.1070 does not scope a contact form's email delivery configuration to the form's own document or owner, instead storing it in a site-global namespace keyed only on a non-secret, author-chosen identifier that is exposed in public page source, allowing users with the Author role or above to overwrite another user's form configuration and have that form's submissions delivered to an attacker-controlled address.
