CVE-2026-88802: CWE-862 Missing Authorization in MDJM Event Management
CVE-2026-88802 is a high-severity vulnerability in the MDJM Event Management and Mobile Events Manager WordPress plugins. It allows unauthenticated attackers to permanently delete arbitrary posts, pages, and media attachments without authorization checks. This occurs because the plugins do not verify user capabilities, nonces, or record types before processing playlist entry removal requests. The affected versions are MDJM Event Management before 1.7.8.5 and Mobile Events Manager up to 1.4.8.3.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The MDJM Event Management WordPress plugin versions before 1.7.8.5 and the Mobile Events Manager plugin versions up to 1.4.8.3 suffer from a missing authorization vulnerability (CWE-862). Specifically, they fail to check user capabilities, nonces, or the type of record before permanently deleting posts identified in playlist entry removal requests. This flaw enables unauthenticated attackers to bypass trash functionality and delete arbitrary posts, pages, and media attachments.
Potential Impact
An unauthenticated attacker can permanently delete arbitrary content such as posts, pages, and media attachments on affected WordPress sites. This results in integrity loss (high impact on integrity) but does not affect confidentiality or availability. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
No explicit patch or remediation details are provided in the input data. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict access to the affected plugins or disable them to prevent exploitation.
