Version 7.11.11 Security Update

Share

We have released Avada 7.11.11, providing various improvements and fixing two security issues:

Avada’s WooCommerce quick view setup is vulnerable to Broken Access Control (BAC). Worst case: drafted or private products could be obtained through quick view.
Deprecated custom colors are vulnerable to Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF). Worst case: An admin user could be tricked into creating a new color.

This is disclosed in our Changelog and our Important Update Info help file.

Like WordPress and any entity that develops software, we understand that security is not absolute and is a continuous process managed as such. We do our best to prevent security issues as proactively as possible, as we do not assume they’ll never come up. Our responsibility is to quickly take care of them and work to get our customers notified and prepared. This is why we recommend keeping your website and plugins up-to-date and maintained at all times.

What Should I Do Next?

We cannot stress enough the importance of ensuring that your website is kept up to date and maintained at all times. Please update to ensure that your installation is issue-free and the fix detailed above is applied. These are our detailed update instructions:
