Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-08-15 03:30 – Updated: 2026-08-15 03:30

Details

The 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.

Severity

8.8 (High)

Title

bLoyal: Loyalty & Promotions by bLoyal <= 3.1.611.78 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Privilege Escalation via Unprotected AJAX API URL Settings

Summary

The 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.
