CVE-2026-13250: CWE-862 Missing Authorization in solacewp Solace Extra
The Solace Extra plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.5.3. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to permanently delete all content previously imported via the Starter Template feature, including posts, pages, media attachments, WooCommerce products, taxonomy terms, and sitebuilder templates. The required nonce is emitted on every wp-admin page via wp_localize_script() hooked to admin_enqueue_scripts without a page guard, meaning any Subscriber visiting /wp-admin/profile.php can obtain it; the handler is additionally registered via wp_ajax_nopriv_, making it reachable by fully unauthenticated users as well.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-13250 is an authorization bypass vulnerability in the Solace Extra WordPress plugin (versions up to and including 1.5.3). The plugin fails to verify that a user is authorized to perform deletion actions related to content imported via the Starter Template feature. The nonce used for protection is exposed on all wp-admin pages without page-specific restrictions and is accessible to subscribers and unauthenticated users because the AJAX handler is registered with wp_ajax_nopriv_. This allows unauthenticated attackers to permanently delete imported content such as posts, pages, media attachments, WooCommerce products, taxonomy terms, and sitebuilder templates.
Potential Impact
An unauthenticated attacker can permanently delete all content imported through the Starter Template feature of the Solace Extra plugin. This includes posts, pages, media attachments, WooCommerce products, taxonomy terms, and sitebuilder templates. The vulnerability does not impact confidentiality or availability but causes integrity loss by allowing unauthorized content deletion.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a patch or official fix is available, restrict access to the wp-admin area to trusted users only and consider disabling or removing the Solace Extra plugin if possible. Monitor for updates from the vendor regarding a security patch or official remediation.
