GHSA-5GPH-5GJX-7RG9
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-09-04 09:31 – Updated: 2026-09-04 09:31The ACPT (Premium) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.66. This is due to missing authorization in the submit() function, which allows unauthenticated form submissions to control the target user ID before calling wp_update_user(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to overwrite any WordPress user's email address and password, including an administrator's, and take over the account. Successful exploitation requires a public ACPT user form that permits anonymous submissions.

GHSA-5H38-4J4G-WF4G
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-08-15 03:30 – Updated: 2026-08-15 03:30The bLoyal: Loyalty & Promotions by bLoyal plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.611.78. This is due to the AJAX actions save_bloyal_configuration_data and save_bloyal_accesskeyverification_data being registered without any capability or nonce checks, and the bloyal_customer_auto_login function unconditionally trusting the Customer.ExternalId value returned by whichever API URL is stored in the plugin's options. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to overwrite the plugin's bLoyal Loyalty Engine API URL (bloyal_custom_loyaltyengine_api_url) and the is_bloyal_custom_api_url flag via the unprotected AJAX actions, then trigger the unauthenticated /cart REST route to cause bloyal_customer_auto_login to fetch customer data from an attacker-controlled endpoint and call wp_set_auth_cookie() with an attacker-supplied Customer.ExternalId, thereby authenticating as any WordPress user including the site Administrator.

Mitigation MIT-1
Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.
Mitigation MIT-48
Strategy: Separation of Privilege
Follow the principle of least privilege when assigning access rights to entities in a software system.
Mitigation MIT-49
Strategy: Separation of Privilege
Consider following the principle of separation of privilege. Require multiple conditions to be met before permitting access to a system resource.
CAPEC-122: Privilege Abuse
An adversary is able to exploit features of the target that should be reserved for privileged users or administrators but are exposed to use by lower or non-privileged accounts. Access to sensitive information and functionality must be controlled to ensure that only authorized users are able to access these resources.
CAPEC-233: Privilege Escalation
An adversary exploits a weakness enabling them to elevate their privilege and perform an action that they are not supposed to be authorized to perform.
CAPEC-58: Restful Privilege Elevation
An adversary identifies a Rest HTTP (Get, Put, Delete) style permission method allowing them to perform various malicious actions upon server data due to lack of access control mechanisms implemented within the application service accepting HTTP messages.
