Morphology
The meaning 'the part of a newspaper where opinions are published' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'editorial' (relating to opinion/content) with 'section' (a part of a document). This adjective + noun composition follows a standard, cross-linguistically common pattern, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
Editorial section comes from old newspapers where the editor wrote opinions in a separate section of the paper. That's why it means 'the part of a newspaper or magazine with opinions about news and events'.
