CVE-2026-32475 is a critical unrestricted file upload vulnerability in the Elementor Pro WordPress plugin affecting versions through 4.2.1. The flaw is in the Forms module's File Upload field, where upload validation and file movement are performed in separate loops that handle empty file entries inconsistently. In the validation path, an empty non-required file entry can cause early return behavior, while in the processing path the empty entry is skipped and subsequent entries are still moved. By submitting multiple file parts for the same upload field, including an empty first entry followed by a malicious server-executable file, an unauthenticated attacker can bypass extension validation and cause the malicious file to be written into a web-accessible uploads directory. Because the stored file retains the attacker-controlled executable extension and is reachable over the web, successful exploitation can result in remote code execution on the affected WordPress site.
