Wp Graphql
Monthly
WPGraphQL prior to version 2.10.0 allows authenticated low-privileged users to bypass comment moderation controls and self-approve their own comments without possessing the moderate_comments capability. The vulnerability exploits owner-based authorization logic in the updateComment mutation, enabling non-moderator users to transition comment status to APPROVE, HOLD, SPAM, or TRASH states directly. A proof-of-concept demonstrating this authorization bypass in WPGraphQL 2.9.1 has been published, and while the EPSS score of 0.03% indicates low statistical likelihood of exploitation, the attack vector is network-based with low complexity and requires only low-level user privileges (including custom roles with zero capabilities).
