No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.

The DynamicKit for Elementor WordPress plugin before 1.0.3 does not validate the host of a user-supplied URL used as the base of the password-reset link it emails, allowing unauthenticated attackers to send a target user a legitimately-formatted reset email whose link points to an attacker-controlled host and carries a valid reset key, leading to account takeover when the victim clicks it.
