No public nuclei template indexed

No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

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 7 Nov 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.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), 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.

AI-suggested

Until a fix is available, limit contributor role assignments or restrict access to the affected AJAX action if possible.

Description

The Pie Register WordPress plugin up to version 3.8.4.15 contains a vulnerability where an AJAX action does not perform an authorization check. This flaw allows users with the contributor role or higher to modify invitation-code records created by administrators.

Impact

Users with a contributor role, which is a relatively low-privilege role in WordPress, can modify administrator-created invitation-code records. This unauthorized modification could undermine the integrity of invitation codes, potentially allowing privilege escalation or unauthorized registrations depending on how the invitation codes are used.

Summary

The Pie Register WordPress plugin through version 3.8.4.15 has an authorization bypass vulnerability in one of its AJAX actions. Specifically, the plugin fails to verify user permissions properly, enabling users with a contributor role to alter invitation-code records that should be restricted to administrators. This could lead to unauthorized modification of invitation codes, potentially impacting user registration or access control mechanisms managed by the plugin.
