CVE-2026-93507: CWE-862 Missing Authorization in WC Fields Factory
The WC Fields Factory WordPress plugin before 4.1.11 does not properly restrict access to, or verify a nonce for, a post-cloning action, allowing Contributor-level users and above to duplicate arbitrary posts of any type or status, including other users' private or draft content, and gain read access to the resulting copy.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-93507 is a missing authorization vulnerability (CWE-862) in the WC Fields Factory WordPress plugin versions prior to 4.1.11. The flaw allows users with Contributor-level access or above to perform a post-cloning action without proper access control or nonce verification. This enables duplication of any post type or status, including private or draft posts owned by other users, thereby granting read access to the duplicated content.
Potential Impact
An attacker with Contributor-level or higher privileges can duplicate arbitrary posts, including private or draft content belonging to other users. This leads to unauthorized read access to potentially sensitive content. The vulnerability does not require higher administrative privileges to exploit but does require at least Contributor-level access.
Mitigation Recommendations
Upgrade the WC Fields Factory plugin to version 4.1.11 or later, where this authorization issue has been fixed. No other mitigation is indicated or necessary once the plugin is updated.
