WordPress Plugin Authorization Bypass

The Yoast Duplicate Post WordPress plugin through version 4.5 contains a missing capability check vulnerability in the clone_bulk_action_handler() and republish_request() functions, allowing authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access to duplicate restricted posts (private, draft, trashed) and Author-level attackers to overwrite published posts via the Rewrite & Republish feature. The vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 5.4 (medium severity) with ENISA EUVD tracking (EUVD-2026-12800), and Wordfence has documented specific vulnerable code paths in the plugin's bulk handler and post republisher modules.

Contextual Related Posts versions before 4.2.2 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to access sensitive information by exploiting improperly configured access controls. The vulnerability affects the plugin's ability to enforce proper permission checks, potentially exposing confidential data to unauthorized users. No patch is currently available for this issue.

The Subscriptions for WooCommerce plugin contains a critical authentication bypass vulnerability in the subscription cancellation function that allows unauthenticated attackers to cancel any active WooCommerce subscription. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 1.9.2 of the plugin (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:wpswings:subscriptions_for_woocommerce:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) and stems from a missing capability check combined with improper nonce validation. An attacker can exploit this with a simple GET request, requiring no special privileges or user interaction, resulting in unauthorized modification of subscription data with a CVSS score of 5.3 and confirmed active exploitation potential.
