What to do about this

Patch on your next cycle Worth fixing, but not ahead of other work.

Fix it

Update Slider Revolution to the latest available version.

Where the vendor has not published a fix yet, disable the plugin until they do.

Cannot update today? Restrict REST API in Hack Halt Pro blocks this class of attack before WordPress processes the request.

Require authentication for REST namespaces that do not need to be public, so the API cannot be used to enumerate content and accounts.

What can an attacker actually do?

This is a Information Disclosure flaw. An attacker who exploits it can read data they were never meant to see, which is often the first step in a larger attack.
