The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up.

Exploitation Conditions

No special configuration or authentication is required: the flaw is one specific AJAX action of the Slider Pro plugin that performs no capability or authorisation check, so any unauthenticated remote user can invoke it against a default installation of Slider Pro (versions 0 through 1.0.0) on a WordPress site. The only prerequisites are that the Slider Pro plugin (≤1.0.0) is installed and active and that the site is network-reachable. Limiting factor on real-world impact: the disclosure is restricted to metadata - titles, excerpts, permalinks and media metadata of non-public posts (drafts, pending, scheduled, private, trashed), plus revisions - not the full post bodies, so the leaked data is of limited sensitivity in most deployments.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N, base 5.3 Medium) describes a remotely reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated information-disclosure flaw with only limited confidentiality impact and no integrity or availability effect - a profile consistent with CWE-200. Multiple signals agree that this is a low-urgency issue rather than a high-priority one: SSVC marks Exploitation as 'none' (no observed exploitation) even though Automatable is 'yes' and Technical Impact is 'partial', and the vulnerability is NOT on the CISA KEV list. No EPSS score was provided in the input, so probabilistic exploitation likelihood cannot be factored in and should be verified separately. The one signal that raises attention is that publicly available exploit code exists (via WPScan), and the flaw is automatable, so opportunistic mass-scanning of WordPress sites is plausible; however, the payoff is modest (leaked titles, excerpts, permalinks and media metadata of non-public posts - not full content, credentials, or write access). Net: a genuine but low-severity confidentiality leak worth patching, not an emergency. The signals are internally consistent - no contradiction between the network vector and the described unauthenticated AJAX access.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An unauthenticated attacker sends a crafted request to the plugin's unprotected AJAX action on a target WordPress site and receives back the titles, excerpts and permalinks of posts that should be hidden - drafts, pending, scheduled, private, trashed posts, revisions, and media metadata. Because public exploit code exists (WPScan) and the issue is automatable, this can be scripted across many sites to harvest unpublished content metadata. The low CVSS complexity (AC:L) and lack of required authentication (PR:N) or user interaction (UI:N) make the request trivial to issue.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 06, 2026

Unauthenticated information disclosure in the Slider Pro WordPress plugin (versions 0 through 1.0.0) allows any remote visitor to call an AJAX action that performs no capability or authorisation check, returning the titles, excerpts, permalinks and media metadata of non-public posts such as drafts, pending, scheduled, private and trashed items, plus post revisions. The exposure is confined to metadata rather than full post bodies, which keeps the confidentiality impact limited (CVSS 3.1 base 5.3, Medium, AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N) with no integrity or availability effect. Publicly available exploit code exists, but CISA's SSVC assessment records no active exploitation and no KEV listing applies.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch was identified in the available intelligence at time of analysis, so the reliable fix is to deactivate and remove the Slider Pro plugin (any version through 1.0.0) from the WordPress installation, or replace it with a maintained slider plugin; because the vendor is recorded as unknown, confirm the plugin's provenance and check the WPScan advisory page (https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/0645bcad-740e-452e-9d73-3e47ddd83f8b/) for any later patched release before assuming an update exists. If removal is not immediately possible, block unauthenticated POST/GET requests to /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php that carry the vulnerable Slider Pro action parameter at the WAF or reverse-proxy layer, accepting the trade-off that legitimate front-end slider functionality relying on that action may break; a broader blanket block on admin-ajax.php for unauthenticated users is more disruptive because many plugins depend on anonymous AJAX, and IP allow-listing is of limited value here since the endpoint is intentionally reachable without authentication. As a detection measure, review web server and WordPress logs for unauthenticated admin-ajax.php requests using slider-related action values, and treat enumeration of draft, private or trashed post titles as evidence of exploitation attempt.

Technical ContextAI · show details

This is a CWE-200 (Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor) flaw rooted in a missing authorisation check on a WordPress AJAX handler. WordPress plugins register AJAX endpoints through the admin-ajax.php dispatcher; handlers registered on the wp_ajax_nopriv_* hook are deliberately reachable without authentication, which makes an in-handler capability check (current_user_can) and a request nonce the only barriers protecting the underlying query. In Slider Pro through 1.0.0 that check is absent on one such action, so the handler queries post data without regard to post status, returning title, excerpt, permalink and attachment metadata for drafts, pending, scheduled, private and trashed posts as well as revisions. The CPE record (cpe:2.3:a:unknown:slider_pro:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) shows the vendor field is unrecorded, meaning the exact distribution channel and maintainer identity for the plugin are not established in the intelligence sources; the authoritative technical write-up is the WPScan advisory at https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/0645bcad-740e-452e-9d73-3e47ddd83f8b/, cross-referenced by ENISA EUVD-2026-92969 and the NVD entry for CVE-2026-86786.
