MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires an authenticated session with at least a low-privileged WordPress account on a site running SureDash from an unspecified initial version through 1.12.2 (PR:L). The flaw is a missing/misconfigured authorization check (CWE-862) on plugin functionality, so an attacker with such an account can access data intended for higher-privileged roles. The specific endpoint, role boundary crossed, and the exact data exposed are not described in the available sources. Limiting factors: a valid low-privileged account is needed (not fully unauthenticated), impact is confidentiality-only (no modification per I:N/A:N), and sites that do not permit untrusted user registration materially reduce the attacker population. |
| Impact | This is a medium-severity (CVSS 6.5) broken access control / missing authorization flaw (CWE-862) in the SureDash WordPress plugin. The CVSS vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity attack that requires low-level privileges (PR:L, i.e. an authenticated but low-privileged account such as a subscriber) and no user interaction, yielding high confidentiality impact only, with no integrity or availability impact. The vuln.today Decision label is 'this_month', signalling a prioritized-but-not-emergency fix cadence rather than act_now/emergency. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no confirmed exploit code are present in the input, so there is no public evidence of active exploitation; the single reference is a Patchstack database entry (the reporter), which is an advisory record rather than a verified working exploit. In short, the C:H-only impact combined with a PR:L requirement makes this a genuine but moderate information-disclosure risk - a real patch priority for SureDash operators within the normal cycle, not a high-CVSS issue masquerading as critical, and not an emergency. Note the impact is read-only disclosure; the description does not establish any write/modify capability, consistent with I:N/A:N. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who holds a low-privileged authenticated account on a WordPress site running SureDash ≤ 1.12.2 sends requests to a plugin endpoint whose access-control check is missing or misconfigured, and thereby reads data that should be restricted to higher-privileged roles. Because AC:L and UI:N, no special timing or victim action is needed once the attacker has a valid low-level account. No public exploit code is identified in the provided data; the only reference is the Patchstack advisory. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 24, 2026
Brainstorm Force SureDash through 1.12.2 does not enforce authorization for low-privileged users, allowing an authenticated WordPress account to read data intended for higher-privileged roles; the issue is scored CVSS 6.5 with confidentiality-only impact. The flaw is CWE-862 missing authorization, and no public exploit was identified at time of analysis. Sites that allow untrusted user registration have the larger exposure because a low-privileged account is the prerequisite.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch or exact fixed version is identified in the provided data; consult the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/suredash/vulnerability/wordpress-suredash-plugin-1-12-2-broken-access-control-vulnerability-3?_s_id=cve for updated fixed-version guidance and apply it when published. Until then, reduce exposure by disabling untrusted user registration and auditing or removing unnecessary low-privileged accounts, because exploitation requires an authenticated low-privileged WordPress session; these measures lower the attacker population but do not fix the missing authorization check.

Technical ContextAI · show details
SureDash is a WordPress plugin identified by the CPE cpe:2.3:a:brainstorm_force:suredash:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, with the description bounding affected releases through 1.12.2. The root cause class is CWE-862 Missing Authorization: the plugin exposes functionality that lacks an adequate authorization check, but the specific endpoint, role boundary crossed, and exact data exposed are not described in the available sources. The supplied CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) confirms a network-reachable issue requiring a low-privileged authenticated session, with high confidentiality impact and no integrity or availability impact. The Patchstack reference is the advisory source, and no KEV entry or public exploit reference is present in the provided data.
