  • May 12, 2026Rate Star Review Vote - AJAX Reviews, Votes, Star Ratings: Missing AuthorizationCVE-2026-4301 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.3

    The Rate Star Review Vote - AJAX Reviews, Votes, Star Ratings plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to and including 1.6.4. The vwrsr_review() AJAX handler lacks both capability checks and nonce verification. The only access control is an is_user_logged_in() check. When the 'form' parameter is set to 'update', the function takes an arbitrary post ID from the user-supplied 'rating_id' GET parameter, sets it as the post ID in the update array, and passes it directly to wp_update_post(). This overwrites the target post's title, content, author (changed to the attacker's user ID), post_type (changed to the plugin's custom post type, default 'review'), and status. Additionally, update_post_meta() is called on the arbitrary post ID at lines 758-763, modifying its metadata. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify the title, content, author, post type, and metadata of arbitrary posts and pages on the site via the 'rating_id' parameter, effectively allowing full post content takeover.

    The Forminator Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to and including 1.53.0. This is due to the listen_for_saving_export_schedule() function in library/class-export.php failing to perform a capability check before saving the scheduled export configuration, unlike the parallel listen_for_csv_export() function which correctly verifies user permissions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access to configure a scheduled export job that emails all form submissions to an attacker-controlled email address, resulting in sensitive data exfiltration.

  • May 6, 2026Appointment Booking Calendar: Missing AuthorizationCVE-2026-4807 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.5

    The Appointment Booking Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to and including 1.6.10.6. This is due to a flawed authorization logic in the nonce_permissions_check() method combined with the public exposure of a site-wide reusable nonce. The plugin exposes a public_nonce value through the /wp-json/ssa/v1/embed-inner endpoint, which is accessible to unauthenticated users. The appointment deletion endpoint at /wp-json/ssa/v1/appointments/{id}/delete and /wp-json/ssa/v1/appointments/bulk use a permission check that accepts requests containing both an X-WP-Nonce header (with any arbitrary value) and an X-PUBLIC-Nonce header (with the valid public nonce). When the X-WP-Nonce validation fails, the function falls back to validating the X-PUBLIC-Nonce without properly rejecting the request. Since the public_nonce is exposed to all unauthenticated visitors and is site-wide (not user-specific or appointment-specific), attackers can obtain it and use it to view details of arbitrary appointments, including the public_edit_url, or delete arbitrary appointments by ID. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to view, delete or modify any

  • May 6, 2026Forminator Forms: Missing AuthorizationCVE-2026-6222 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.3

    The Forminator Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to and including 1.51.1. This is due to the `processRequest()` method in `Forminator_Admin_Module_Edit_Page` (admin/abstracts/class-admin-module-edit-page.php) dispatching sensitive module-management actions — including export, delete, clone, delete-entries, publish/draft, and bulk variants — after only a nonce check, without ever verifying that the current user holds the `manage_forminator_modules` capability. The nonce used (`forminator_form_request`) is unconditionally embedded in the global `forminatorData` JavaScript object and localized on every Forminator admin page, including Templates and Reports pages accessible to users who explicitly lack module-management permissions. Because `processRequest()` is invoked during the `admin_menu` action hook — which fires before WordPress enforces page-level capability checks — a user whose Forminator role is restricted to Templates or Reports can craft a valid POST request targeting any published module and successfully trigger the vulnerable actions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access (or any cus

    The All-in-One WP Migration Unlimited Extension plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to, and including, 2.83. This is due to the 'Ai1wmve_Schedules_Controller::save' handler for 'admin_post_ai1wm_schedule_event_save' not verifying user capabilities before saving schedule data. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to create scheduled export jobs and send backup notifications to attacker-controlled email addresses. Because such notifications include the random backup filename, full site backups can subsequently be downloaded from the target site, resulting in sensitive information exposure.

    The Forminator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.52.0. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action when processing attacker-supplied Stripe PaymentIntent identifiers in the public payment flow. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to submit high-value paid forms as completed by reusing a previously succeeded low-value Stripe PaymentIntent, resulting in underpayment/payment bypass conditions.

This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to overwrite the Elementor content (`_elementor_data`) of any `elementskit_widget` custom post type by visiting a specially crafted URL. The widget's custom designs, text, and configurations are permanently replaced with a blank template.

    The Royal Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the `wpr_update_form_action_meta` AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.1056. The handler is registered on both `wp_ajax` and `wp_ajax_nopriv` hooks, making it accessible to unauthenticated users. Although a nonce is verified, the nonce (`wpr-addons-js`) is publicly exposed in frontend JavaScript via `WprConfig.nonce` on any page that loads Royal Addons widgets, rendering the protection ineffective. The endpoint also lacks any capability or ownership checks and directly calls `update_post_meta()` with user-controlled input on a whitelisted set of form action meta keys. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify form action configuration metadata (email, submissions, Mailchimp, and webhook settings) on any post, potentially leading to webhook/email action tampering and data exfiltration via modified webhook URLs.

    The Booking for Appointments and Events Calendar – Amelia plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Improper Authorization in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.2. This is due to a logical short-circuit flaw in authorization logic that causes token validation to be entirely skipped when a booking has a 'waiting' status. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to approve any booking that is in 'waiting' status by sending a crafted request to the publicly-accessible admin-ajax endpoint.

    The FundPress – WordPress Donation Plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in versions up to and including 2.0.8. This is due to missing authorization and nonce verification in the donate_action_status() AJAX handler, which is registered to be accessible to unauthenticated users via wp_ajax_nopriv. The function only validates that the schema parameter equals 'donate-ajax' and that the required POST parameters are present, but fails to verify user capabilities, nonce tokens, or donation ownership. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify the status of any donation by providing its ID (which are sequential integers and easily enumerable), allowing them to mark donations as completed, pending, cancelled, or any arbitrary status, potentially triggering email notifications and related side effects.

    The HM Books Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to and including 4.8.0. This is due to the absence of capability checks and nonce verification in the admin_init hook that handles the permalink settings update at line 205-209 of wp-books-gallery.php. The vulnerable code checks only for the presence of the 'permalink_structure' POST parameter before updating the 'wbg_cpt_slug' option, without verifying that the request comes from an authenticated administrator. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify the custom post type slug for the books gallery, which changes the URL structure for all book entries and can break existing links and SEO rankings.

  • Apr 24, 2026BetterDocs: Missing AuthorizationCVE-2026-6393 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.3

    The BetterDocs plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to and including 4.3.11. This is due to a missing capability check in the generate_openai_content_callback() function, which relies solely on a nonce rather than verifying user permissions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to trigger OpenAI API calls using the site's configured API key with arbitrary user-controlled prompts, leading to unauthorized consumption of the site owner's paid AI API quota.

  • Apr 24, 2026ExactMetrics – Google Analytics Dashboard for: Missing AuthorizationCVE-2026-5488 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.3

    The ExactMetrics – Google Analytics Dashboard for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to and including 9.1.2. This is due to missing capability checks in the get_ads_access_token() and reset_experience() AJAX handlers. While the mi-admin-nonce is localized on all admin pages (including profile.php which subscribers can access), and while other similar AJAX endpoints in the same class properly check for the exactmetrics_save_settings capability, these two endpoints only verify the nonce. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to retrieve valid Google Ads access tokens and reset Google Ads integration settings.

  • Apr 23, 2026ExactMetrics – Google Analytics Dashboard for WordPress (Website Stats Plugin): Unauthorized arbitrary plugin installation and activationCVE-2026-5464 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The ExactMetrics – Google Analytics Dashboard for WordPress (Website Stats Plugin) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized arbitrary plugin installation and activation in all versions up to, and including, 9.1.2. This is due to the reports page exposing the 'onboarding_key' transient to any user with the 'exactmetrics_view_dashboard' capability. This key is the sole authorization gate for the '/wp-json/exactmetrics/v1/onboarding/connect-url' REST endpoint, which returns a one-time hash (OTH) token. This OTH token is then the only credential checked by the 'exactmetrics_connect_process' AJAX endpoint — which has no capability check, no nonce verification, and accepts an arbitrary plugin ZIP URL via the file parameter for installation and activation. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Editor-level access and above granted the report viewing permission, to install and activate arbitrary plugins from attacker-controlled URLs, leading to Remote Code Execution.

    The Sendmachine for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass via the 'manage_admin_requests' function in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.20. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action.

  • Apr 22, 2026TP Restore Categories And Taxonomies: Missing AuthorizationCVE-2026-4128 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.3

    The TP Restore Categories And Taxonomies plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.1. The delete_term() function, which handles the 'tpmcattt_delete_term' AJAX action, does not perform any capability check (e.g., current_user_can()) to verify the user has sufficient permissions. While it does verify a nonce via check_ajax_referer(), this nonce is generated for all authenticated users via the admin_enqueue_scripts hook and exposed on any wp-admin page (including profile.php, which subscribers can access). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to permanently delete taxonomy term records from the plugin's trash/backup tables by sending a crafted AJAX request with a valid nonce and an arbitrary term_id.

  • Apr 22, 2026Create DB Tables: Authorization bypassCVE-2026-4119 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.1

    The Create DB Tables plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to and including 1.2.1. The plugin registers admin_post action hooks for creating tables (admin_post_add_table) and deleting tables (admin_post_delete_db_table) without implementing any capability checks via current_user_can() or nonce verification via wp_verify_nonce()/check_admin_referer(). The admin_post hook only requires the user to be logged in, meaning any authenticated user including Subscribers can access these endpoints. The cdbt_delete_db_table() function takes a user-supplied table name from $_POST['db_table'] and executes a DROP TABLE SQL query, allowing any authenticated attacker to delete any database table including critical WordPress core tables such as wp_users or wp_options. The cdbt_create_new_table() function similarly allows creating arbitrary tables. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to create arbitrary database tables and delete any existing database table, potentially destroying the entire WordPress installation.

  • Apr 22, 2026CalJ: Missing AuthorizationCVE-2026-4117 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.3

    The CalJ plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to, and including, 1.5. This is due to a missing capability check in the CalJSettingsPage class constructor, which processes the 'save-obtained-key' operation directly from POST data without verifying that the requesting user has the 'manage_options' capability, and without any nonce verification. The plugin bootstrap file (calj.php) instantiates CalJSettingsPage whenever is_admin() returns true, which is the case for any authenticated user making requests to wp-admin URLs (including admin-ajax.php). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify the plugin's API key setting and clear the Shabbat cache, effectively taking control of the plugin's API integration.

    The Responsive Blocks – Page Builder for Blocks & Patterns plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.1. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to modify global site-wide plugin configuration options, including toggling custom CSS, disabling blocks, changing layout defaults such as content width, container padding, and container gap, and altering auto-block-recovery behavior.

  • Apr 17, 2026Canto: Missing AuthorizationCVE-2026-6441 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.3

    The Canto plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to and including 3.1.1. This is due to the absence of any capability check or nonce verification in the updateOptions() function, which is exposed via two AJAX hooks: wp_ajax_updateOptions (class-canto.php line 231) and wp_ajax_fbc_updateOptions (class-canto-settings.php line 76). Both hooks are registered exclusively under the wp_ajax_ prefix (requiring only a logged-in user), with no call to current_user_can() or check_ajax_referer(). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access and above to arbitrarily modify or delete plugin options controlling cron scheduling behavior (fbc_duplicates, fbc_cron, fbc_schedule, fbc_cron_time_day, fbc_cron_time_hour, fbc_cron_start) and to manipulate or clear the plugin's scheduled WordPress cron event (fbc_scheduled_update).

  • Apr 17, 2026Tutor LMS – eLearning and online course solution: Unauthorized course content manipulationCVE-2026-5502 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.3

    The Tutor LMS – eLearning and online course solution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized course content manipulation in versions up to and including 3.9.8. This is due to a missing authorization check in the tutor_update_course_content_order() function. The function only validates the nonce (CSRF protection) but does not verify whether the user has permission to manage course content. The can_user_manage() authorization check only executes when the 'content_parent' parameter is present in the request. When this parameter is omitted, the function proceeds directly to save_course_content_order() which manipulates the wp_posts table without any authorization validation. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access and above to detach all lessons from any topic, move lessons between topics, and modify the menu_order of course content, effectively allowing them to disrupt the structure of any course on the site.

  • Apr 17, 2026wpForo Forum: Unauthorized modification of dataCVE-2026-4666 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.5

    The wpForo Forum plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to the use of `extract($args, EXTR_OVERWRITE)` on user-controlled input in the `edit()` method of `classes/Posts.php` in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.16. The `post_edit` action handler in `Actions.php` passes `$_REQUEST['post']` directly to `Posts::edit()`, which calls `extract($args, EXTR_OVERWRITE)`. An attacker can inject `post[guestposting]=1` to overwrite the local `$guestposting` variable, causing the entire permission check block to be skipped. The nonce check uses a hardcoded `wpforo_verify_form` action shared across all 8 forum templates, so any user who can view any forum page obtains a valid nonce. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to edit the title, body, name, and email fields of any forum post, including posts in private forums, admin posts, and moderator posts. Content passes through `wpforo_kses()` which strips JavaScript but allows rich HTML.

    The WP Statistics plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to, and including, 14.16.4. This is due to missing capability checks on multiple AJAX handlers including `wp_statistics_get_filters`, `wp_statistics_getPrivacyStatus`, `wp_statistics_updatePrivacyStatus`, and `wp_statistics_dismiss_notices`. These endpoints only verify a `wp_rest` nonce via `check_ajax_referer()` but do not enforce any capability checks such as `current_user_can()` or the plugin's own `User::Access()` method. Since the `wp_rest` nonce is available to all authenticated WordPress users, this makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to access sensitive analytics data (user IDs, usernames, emails, visitor tracking data), retrieve and modify privacy audit compliance status, and dismiss administrative notices.

    The Riaxe Product Customizer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.2. This is due to the plugin registering a REST API route at POST /wp-json/InkXEProductDesignerLite/customer/delete_customer without a permission_callback, causing WordPress to default to allowing unauthenticated access, and the inkxe_delete_customer() callback function taking an array of user IDs from the request body and passing each one directly to wp_delete_user() without any authentication or authorization checks. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary WordPress user accounts, including administrator accounts, leading to complete site lockout and data loss.
