Unauthenticated Broken Access Control in SiteGround Email Marketing <= 1.7.5 versions.
AnalysisAI
Broken access control in the SiteGround Email Marketing WordPress plugin (versions 1.7.5 and earlier) permits unauthenticated remote attackers to perform privileged actions due to missing authorization checks (CWE-862). The CVSS vector confirms network-accessible, low-complexity, zero-privilege exploitation with an integrity-only impact, meaning attackers can manipulate plugin-managed data or functionality without logging in. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | No authentication is required - the CVSS vector PR:N confirms unauthenticated exploitation. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The NVD-assigned CVSS 3.1 score of 5.3 (Medium) reflects a constrained impact profile: integrity-only (I:L), no confidentiality or availability degradation, and unchanged scope. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An unauthenticated attacker enumerates a target WordPress site, detects the SiteGround Email Marketing plugin version via response headers, readme.txt, or plugin directory enumeration, then sends a crafted HTTP request directly to the exposed plugin endpoint to invoke a privileged operation - such as modifying email subscription settings or injecting data - without any valid session or nonce. No exploit code has been publicly identified, but the low attack complexity and zero-privilege requirement make this straightforward to exploit manually once the vulnerable endpoint is identified. |
| Remediation | Administrators should update the SiteGround Email Marketing plugin to a version beyond 1.7.5 immediately upon availability. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
