Contributor Remote Code Execution (RCE) in Cwicly <= 1.4.4 versions.
AnalysisAI
Remote code execution in the Cwicly WordPress page-builder plugin (versions 1.4.4 and earlier) allows a low-privileged Contributor-level account to inject and execute arbitrary PHP code on the server, per a Patchstack advisory.

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an authenticated WordPress account at Contributor role or higher on a site running the Cwicly plugin version 1.4.4 or earlier (PR:L in the CVSS vector confirms low-privilege authentication is needed, not fully anonymous access). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C, C:H/I:H/A:H = 9.9) signals network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation with no user interaction, requiring only low privileges and producing a scope change with total confidentiality, integrity, and availability loss - an accurate profile for authenticated RCE. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch version is confirmed in the available data, so upgrade to the fixed Cwicly release identified in the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/cwicly/vulnerability/wordpress-cwicly-plugin-1-4-4-remote-code-execution-rce-vulnerability) as soon as it is verified above 1.4.4. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
