    The Amelia Booking plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object References in versions up to, and including, 9.1.2. This is due to the plugin providing user-controlled access to objects, letting a user bypass authorization and access system resources.

  • Mar 21, 2026REST API TO MiniProgram: Insecure Direct Object ReferenceCVE-2026-3460 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.3

    The REST API TO MiniProgram plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.2. This is due to the permission callback (update_user_wechatshop_info_permissions_check) only validating that the supplied 'openid' parameter corresponds to an existing WordPress user, while the callback function (update_user_wechatshop_info) uses a separate, attacker-controlled 'userid' parameter to determine which user's metadata gets modified, with no verification that the 'openid' and 'userid' belong to the same user. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify arbitrary users' store-related metadata (storeinfo, storeappid, storename) via the 'userid' REST API parameter.

  • Mar 13, 2026GetGenie: Insecure Direct Object ReferenceCVE-2026-2879 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.4

    The GetGenie plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 4.3.2. This is due to missing validation on the `id` parameter in the `create()` method of the `GetGenieChat` REST API endpoint. The method accepts a user-controlled post ID and, when a post with that ID exists, calls `wp_update_post()` without verifying that the current user owns the post or that the post is of the expected `getgenie_chat` type. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to overwrite arbitrary posts owned by any user — including Administrators — effectively destroying the original content by changing its `post_type` to `getgenie_chat` and reassigning `post_author` to the attacker.

This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to update post metadata for arbitrary posts. Combined with a lack of input sanitization, this leads to Stored Cross-Site Scripting when a higher-privileged user (such as an Administrator) views the affected post's "Competitor" tab in the GetGenie sidebar.

    The Appointment Booking Calendar — Simply Schedule Appointments Booking Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.9.29. This is due to the `get_item_permissions_check` method granting access to users with the `ssa_manage_appointments` capability without validating staff ownership of the requested appointment. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with custom-level access and above (users granted the ssa_manage_appointments capability, such as Team Members), to view appointment records belonging to other staff members and access sensitive customer personally identifiable information via the appointment ID parameter.

  • Mar 11, 2026ExactMetrics – Google Analytics Dashboard for: Insecure Direct Object ReferenceCVE-2026-1992 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 8.8

    The ExactMetrics – Google Analytics Dashboard for WordPress plugin is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in versions 8.6.0 through 9.0.2. This is due to the `store_settings()` method in the `ExactMetrics_Onboarding` class accepting a user-supplied `triggered_by` parameter that is used instead of the current user's ID to check permissions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with the `exactmetrics_save_settings` capability to bypass the `install_plugins` capability check by specifying an administrator's user ID in the `triggered_by` parameter, allowing them to install arbitrary plugins and achieve Remote Code Execution. This vulnerability only affects sites on which administrator has given other user types the permission to view reports and can only be exploited by users of that type.

  • Mar 11, 2026Happy Addons for Elementor: Insecure Direct Object ReferenceCVE-2026-2918 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Happy Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 3.21.0 via the `ha_condition_update` AJAX action. This is due to the `validate_reqeust()` method using `current_user_can('edit_posts', $template_id)` instead of `current_user_can('edit_post', $template_id)` — failing to perform object-level authorization. Additionally, the `ha_get_current_condition` AJAX action lacks a capability check. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to modify the display conditions of any published `ha_library` template. Because the `cond_to_html()` renderer outputs condition values into HTML attributes without proper escaping (using string concatenation instead of `esc_attr()`), an attacker can inject event handler attributes (e.g., `onmouseover`) that execute JavaScript when an administrator views the Template Conditions panel, resulting in Stored Cross-Site Scripting.

    The Happy Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 3.21.0 via the `ha_duplicate_thing` admin action handler. This is due to the `can_clone()` method only checking `current_user_can('edit_posts')` (a general capability) without performing object-level authorization such as `current_user_can('edit_post', $post_id)`, and the nonce being tied to the generic action name `ha_duplicate_thing` rather than to a specific post ID. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to clone any published post, page, or custom post type by obtaining a valid clone nonce from their own posts and changing the `post_id` parameter to target other users' content. The clone operation copies the full post content, all post metadata (including potentially sensitive widget configurations and API tokens), and taxonomies into a new draft owned by the attacker.

  • Mar 10, 2026ProfilePress: Insecure Direct Object ReferenceCVE-2026-3453 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 8.1

    The ProfilePress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 4.16.11. This is due to missing ownership validation on the change_plan_sub_id parameter in the process_checkout() function. The ppress_process_checkout AJAX handler accepts a user-controlled subscription ID intended for plan upgrades, loads the subscription record, and cancels/expires it without verifying the subscription belongs to the requesting user. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to cancel and expire any other user's active subscription via the change_plan_sub_id parameter during checkout, causing immediate loss of paid access for victims.

    The Greenshift – animation and page builder blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 12.8.3. This is due to missing authorization and post status validation in the `gspb_el_reusable_load()` AJAX handler. The handler accepts an arbitrary `post_id` parameter and renders the content of any `wp_block` post without checking `current_user_can('read_post', $post_id)` or verifying the post status. Combined with the nonce being exposed to unauthenticated users on any public page using the `[wp_reusable_render]` shortcode with `ajax="1"`, this makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to retrieve the rendered HTML content of private, draft, or password-protected reusable blocks.

Exposed data includes form field structures, Google reCAPTCHA secret keys (if configured), email notification templates, and server paths.
