CVE-2026-23693 Details.
ElementsKit Lite <3.7.9 - Unauthenticated Mailchimp Proxy
Atlas does not check this one. Needs requests that change data.
To test for this one, the check would have to send requests that could change data on the site. Atlas only ever reads public pages, so it does not run this check.
About CVE-2026-23693. What It Means.
The ElementsKit Elementor Addons Lite (elementskit-lite) plugin for WordPress before 3.7.9 registers the REST route /wp-json/elementskit/v1/widget/mailchimp/subscribe with no authentication or capability check (CWE-306). The handler accepts client-supplied Mailchimp API credentials and a `list` parameter and issues upstream Mailchimp API requests, letting an unauthenticated attacker use the site as an open proxy to Mailchimp.
