CVE-2026-2144 (GCVE-0-2026-2144)

Title
Magic Login Mail or QR Code <= 2.05 - Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation via Insecure QR Code File Storage
Summary
The Magic Login Mail or QR Code plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 2.05. This is due to the plugin storing the magic login QR code image with a predictable, static filename (QR_Code.png) in the publicly accessible WordPress uploads directory during the email sending process. The file is only deleted after wp_mail() completes, creating an exploitable race condition window. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to trigger a login link request for any user, including administrators, and then exploit the race condition between QR code file creation and deletion to obtain the login URL encoded in the QR code, thereby gaining unauthorized access to the targeted user's account.

CVE-2026-1994 (GCVE-0-2026-1994)

Title
s2Member <= 260127 - Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation via Account Takeover
Summary
The s2Member plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 260127. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to updating their password. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change arbitrary user's passwords, including administrators, and leverage that to gain access to their account.

CVE-2026-1993 (GCVE-0-2026-1993)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-03-11 09:25 – Updated: 2026-03-11 13:28

Title
ExactMetrics 7.1.0 - 9.0.2 - Authenticated (Custom) Improper Privilege Management to Role Privilege Escalation via Settings Update
Summary
The ExactMetrics – Google Analytics Dashboard for WordPress plugin is vulnerable to Improper Privilege Management in versions 7.1.0 through 9.0.2. This is due to the `update_settings()` function accepting arbitrary plugin setting names without a whitelist of allowed settings. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with the `exactmetrics_save_settings` capability to modify any plugin setting, including the `save_settings` option that controls which user roles have access to plugin functionality. The admin intended to delegate configuration access to a trusted user, not enable that user to delegate access to everyone. By setting `save_settings` to include `subscriber`, an attacker can grant plugin administrative access to all subscribers on the site.

CVE-2026-1750 (GCVE-0-2026-1750)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-02-15 03:24 – Updated: 2026-04-08 16:44

Title
Ecwid by Lightspeed Ecommerce Shopping Cart <= 7.0.7 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Privilege Escalation via ec_store_admin_access
Summary
The Ecwid by Lightspeed Ecommerce Shopping Cart plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 7.0.7. This is due to a missing capability check in the 'save_custom_user_profile_fields' function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with minimal permissions such as a subscriber, to supply the 'ec_store_admin_access' parameter during a profile update and gain store manager access to the site.

CVE-2026-1728 (GCVE-0-2026-1728)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-08-06 07:33 – Updated: 2026-08-06 12:31
VLAI
Title
Privilege Escalation via System REST APIs in Multiple WSO2 Products Permits Admin Account Takeover
Summary
Tokens issued to a low-privileged user are not sufficiently restricted, allowing them to be used to access product-level Admin REST APIs. Exploitation of this vulnerability allows a low-privileged user to invoke the Admin REST APIs of WSO2 products, potentially leading to full administrative account takeover. This requires the attacker to already possess a low-privileged user account and be able to obtain a valid token for it.

Title
Multiple Vulnerabilities in IBM Guardium Key Lifecycle Manager
Summary
IBM Guardium Key Lifecycle Manager 4.1, 4.1.1, 4.2, 4.2.1, 5.0, and 5.1 enables privilege escalation, allowing unauthorized users to perform administrative operations after being demoted. Attackers could access sensitive data, modify system configurations, or change permissions for other users. The issue undermines administrative controls and could lead to data breaches, system compromise, and loss of trust in the application's security mechanisms.

CVE-2026-1566 (GCVE-0-2026-1566)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-03-02 23:22 – Updated: 2026-04-08 17:21
VLAI
Title
LatePoint <= 5.2.7 - Authenticated (Agent+) Privilege Escalation
Summary
The LatePoint – Calendar Booking Plugin for Appointments and Events plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via password reset in all versions up to, and including, 5.2.7. This is due to the plugin allowing users with a LatePoint Agent role, who are creating new customers to set the 'wordpress_user_id' field. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Agent-level access and above, to gain elevated privileges by linking a customer to the arbitrary user ID, including administrators, and then resetting the password.

CVE-2026-1492 (GCVE-0-2026-1492)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-03-03 04:33 – Updated: 2026-04-08 17:03

Title
User Registration & Membership <= 5.1.2 - Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation via Membership Registration
Summary
The User Registration & Membership – Custom Registration Form Builder, Custom Login Form, User Profile, Content Restriction & Membership Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to improper privilege management in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.2. This is due to the plugin accepting a user-supplied role during membership registration without properly enforcing a server-side allowlist. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to create administrator accounts by supplying a role value during membership registration.

CVE-2026-1010 (GCVE-0-2026-1010)

Title
Stored Cross-Site Scripting in Altium Enterprise Server Workflow Engine Allows Privilege Escalation
Summary
A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the Altium Workflow Engine due to missing server-side input sanitization in workflow form submission APIs. A regular authenticated user can inject arbitrary JavaScript into workflow data. When an administrator views the affected workflow, the injected payload executes in the administrator’s browser context, allowing privilege escalation, including creation of new administrator accounts, session token theft, and execution of administrative actions.

CVE-2026-0920 (GCVE-0-2026-0920)

Title
LA-Studio Element Kit for Elementor <= 1.5.6.3 - Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation via Backdoor to Administrative User Creation via lakit_bkrole parameter
Summary
The LA-Studio Element Kit for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Administrative User Creation in all versions up to, and including, 1.5.6.3. This is due to the 'ajax_register_handle' function not restricting what user roles a user can register with. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to supply the 'lakit_bkrole' parameter during registration and gain administrator access to the site.

Mitigation MIT-1
Architecture and Design Operation

Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.

Mitigation MIT-48
Architecture and Design

Strategy: Separation of Privilege

Follow the principle of least privilege when assigning access rights to entities in a software system.

Mitigation MIT-49
Architecture and Design

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.
