Contributor Broken Access Control in SEOPress PRO <= 9.1.1 versions.

AnalysisAI

Broken Access Control in SEOPress PRO WordPress plugin versions up to and including 9.1.1 allows authenticated users holding the Contributor role to perform privileged actions beyond their intended authorization scope. Exploitation requires a valid WordPress account with at least Contributor-level access, making this an insider or low-privilege escalation risk rather than a remote unauthenticated threat. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation	Exploitation requires an active WordPress user account with at least Contributor-level role on the target site - unauthenticated exploitation is not possible per the CVSS PR:L metric. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment	The CVSS base score of 4.3 (Medium) is consistent with the limited impact profile: integrity-only (I:L), no confidentiality or availability impact, unchanged scope, and a requirement for low-privilege authentication (PR:L). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario	An attacker with a valid WordPress Contributor account on a target site sends a crafted authenticated request (REST API or AJAX) to a SEOPress PRO endpoint that lacks proper capability checks, invoking a privileged SEO management function - such as modifying redirect rules, metadata, or plugin settings - that should be restricted to Editor or Administrator roles. Because the plugin does not validate the caller's capabilities, the action succeeds, allowing the attacker to manipulate SEO configurations, potentially injecting malicious redirects or altering structured data. …
Remediation	The primary remediation is to update SEOPress PRO to a version beyond 9.1.1; however, no specific patched release version was confirmed in the available source data - the fix version should be verified directly via the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/wp-seopress-pro/vulnerability/wordpress-seopress-pro-plugin-9-1-1-broken-access-control-vulnerability or the official SEOPress changelog. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
