Exploitation Conditions

The description attributes the flaw to 'Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels' (missing authorization) affecting GEO my WordPress up to 4.5.5.5, but the specific vulnerable endpoint, parameter, or feature is not described in the available sources. Consistent with the CVSS vector (PR:N/UI:N/AC:L), no authentication, user interaction, or non-default configuration is indicated as a prerequisite, so a site running an affected plugin version is reachable by a remote unauthenticated attacker. The main limiting factors are that the site must run GEO my WordPress at or below version 4.5.5.5 and that impact is confined to confidentiality (information disclosure); no integrity or availability effect applies.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N, base 7.5) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated flaw whose only impact is a high loss of confidentiality - no integrity or availability effect - which is consistent with the CWE-862 Missing Authorization classification and the Patchstack title 'Broken Access Control.' The vuln.today decision label is 'this_week,' indicating elevated but not emergency urgency. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no verified public exploit were supplied, so there is no public evidence of active or imminent widespread exploitation; neither were present to contradict the CVSS reading either. The practical risk is therefore a credible unauthenticated data-exposure issue in a WordPress plugin that merits prompt patching this week, but it is not confirmed as actively exploited and the confidentiality-only impact means it is lower priority than an equivalent RCE or data-tampering flaw. One signal to verify: the Tags label this 'Authentication Bypass' while the description and CWE-862 describe missing authorization (an authenticated-or-not access-control gap) rather than a credential/authentication bypass - treat the mechanism as broken access control.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A remote attacker sends a crafted request directly to a plugin endpoint that fails to enforce an authorization check, and the plugin returns data the requester should not be able to read. Per the CVSS vector no authentication or user interaction is required and attack complexity is low, so the request can be issued against a default-reachable site. No verified public exploit code was provided in the input.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 29, 2026

Missing authorization in the GEO my WordPress plugin through version 4.5.5.5 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to reach data they should not be able to access, producing a high confidentiality impact with no integrity or availability effect. The CVSS 3.1 vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N (base 7.5), consistent with CWE-862 Missing Authorization and the Patchstack classification as broken access control. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV entry are identified in the available data, and the specific vulnerable endpoint or parameter is not described in the supplied sources.

RemediationAI

The provided data does not identify a fixed release for GEO my WordPress; consult the referenced Patchstack advisory for the vendor's remediation guidance and patched version, and update the plugin as soon as a fixed release is confirmed, since updating is the complete fix for an access-control defect of this kind. If the plugin cannot be updated immediately, disabling or removing GEO my WordPress removes the exposure at the cost of losing its geolocation features; restricting access to the plugin's endpoints may reduce exposure, but the specific vulnerable endpoint is not described in the available sources, so targeted blocking cannot be confirmed.

Technical ContextAI · show details

GEO my WordPress is a WordPress geolocation plugin maintained by Eyal Fitoussi, represented in the supplied CPE data as cpe:2.3:a:eyal_fitoussi:geo_my_wordpress:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*. The flaw is CWE-862 Missing Authorization: an access-control decision is absent or incorrectly configured for a plugin feature, so a request that should require authorization is handled without it. The CVSS vector confirms network reachability, low attack complexity, no required privileges, and no user interaction; impact is confined to confidentiality. The trigger, affected endpoint, and parameter are not described in the available sources.

DescriptionCVE.org

Missing Authorization vulnerability in Eyal Fitoussi GEO my WordPress geo-my-wp allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects GEO my WordPress: from n/a through 4.5.5.5.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

A high-severity vulnerability (CVE-2026-114193) in the GEO my WordPress plugin (versions through 4.5.5.5) allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass authorization controls and access sensitive data, with no integrity or availability impact. This affects all sites running the plugin, potentially exposing confidential information that could damage customer trust, trigger regulatory scrutiny, and harm the organization's reputation.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations include restricting access to the vulnerable plugin endpoints, deploying WAF rules to enforce authorization, deactivating the plugin, and monitoring for anomalous data access.
