Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Elegant mes Divi Plugin up to 4.27.6. It has been classified as critical. Affected is the function et_pb_set_video_oembed_thumbnail_resolution. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a server-side request forgery vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-918. The web server receives a URL or similar request from an upstream component and retrieves the contents of this URL, but it does not sufficiently ensure that the request is being sent to the expected destination. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

The Divi theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 4.27.6. This is due to the `et_pb_set_video_oembed_thumbnail_resolution()` function using `wp_remote_get()` instead of `wp_safe_remote_get()` to fetch a remote image URL, which does not restrict requests to private or reserved IP ranges. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to make web requests to arbitrary locations originating from the web application server. The response body is not returned to the attacker (blind SSRF), but two oracles exist: a status oracle (the returned URL string differs depending on whether the target responded with HTTP 200) and a timing oracle (response time varies by target reachability).

The advisory is available at wordfence.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2026-4361 since 03/17/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. Technical details are known, but there is no available exploit. The structure of the vulnerability defines a possible price range of USD $0-$5k at the moment (estimation calculated on 09/05/2026).
