Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed

No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 26 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

What to do

Upgrade Welcart e-Commerce (WordPress plugin) to 2.12.6.

AI-suggested

Upgrade the Welcart e-Commerce plugin to version 2.12.6 or later, where this authorization flaw has been fixed. No other mitigation is required once the plugin is updated.

Description

A vulnerability in the Welcart e-Commerce WordPress plugin before version 2.12.6 allows any authenticated user with Author-level access or higher to improperly modify SKU data of any product. This occurs because the plugin does not properly verify authorization tied to the specific product being edited, enabling unauthorized read, modification, creation, deletion, and re-ordering of SKU data including prices, cost prices, and stock levels.

Impact

Unauthorized users with Author-level access or higher can read and modify SKU data of any product, potentially leading to unauthorized price changes, stock manipulation, and exposure of confidential cost prices. This could affect product integrity and business operations relying on accurate SKU data.

Summary

CVE-2026-111032 is an incorrect authorization vulnerability (CWE-863) in the Welcart e-Commerce WordPress plugin versions prior to 2.12.6. The plugin fails to properly verify that the user has authorization for the specific product before processing SKU changes. As a result, any authenticated user with Author-level permissions or higher can manipulate SKU data for any product, including those owned by other users. This includes sensitive information such as prices, confidential cost prices, and stock levels. The issue is fixed in version 2.12.6.

Class weaknessLikelihood of exploit: HighCWE Top 25 (2025): #17OWASP Top 10 A01:2025: Broken Access Control (opens in a new tab)
The product performs an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action, but it does not correctly perform the check.
Architecture and Design
Divide the product into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully mapping roles with data and functionality. Use role-based access control (RBAC) to enforce the roles at the appropriate boundaries.
Architecture and Design
Ensure that access control checks are performed related to the business logic. These checks may be different than the access control checks that are applied to more generic resources such as files, connections, processes, memory, and database records.
Architecture and Design · Libraries or Frameworks
Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
