The zipMoney(Zip Co) Payments Plugin for WooCommerce WordPress plugin before 2.4.0 does not perform any authorisation checks on one of its front-end request handlers, and does not restrict which option name a caller may supply, allowing unauthenticated users to delete arbitrary WordPress options. This can be used to destroy site and access control configuration, deactivate every installed zipMoney(Zip Co) Payments Plugin for WooCommerce WordPress plugin before 2.4.0, and take the site offline.

The miniOrange 2FA WordPress plugin before 6.3.1, miniOrange 2FA WordPress plugin before 19.3 does not require a validated transaction before deleting site options whose names come from unauthenticated request input, allowing any visitor to delete arbitrary options, which can lock every administrator out of the dashboard or deactivate every miniOrange 2FA WordPress plugin before 6.3.1, miniOrange 2FA WordPress plugin before 19.3 on the site.

The Bulk Password Reset plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 1.3.3. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to updating their details like arbitrary user passwords, including administrator passwords, to a known plugin-configured custom value, enabling full account takeover of the site. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to change arbitrary user's email addresses, including administrators, and leverage that to reset the user's password and gain access to their account.

The Advanced Contact form 7 DB plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.3. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with custom-level access and above, to import forged CSV submission records into any Contact Form 7 form managed by the plugin.

Builderall Cheetah For WordPress plugin versions up to 3.0.2 contains a missing authorization vulnerability. The wp_ajax_ba_cheetah_disable AJAX handler lacks capability and nonce verification, allowing authenticated users with Subscriber-level access or higher to disable the page builder layout on arbitrary posts, including those owned by other users. This is achieved by modifying the _ba_cheetah_enabled post meta to false via user-controlled input.

Cash Collect contains an improper authorization vulnerability in the Sage AR Automation API. Administrative functions do not properly verify user privileges, allowing authenticated low-privileged users to create administrator accounts and obtain elevated privileges.

CVE-2026-41871 is a critical vulnerability in Apache Nutch Server's REST API affecting versions 1.10 through 1.22. It involves missing authorization and unsafe reflection, allowing unauthorized access and potentially full compromise. The vulnerability is fixed by upgrading to version 1.23, which removes the vulnerable Nutch Server component. If upgrading is not feasible, restricting access to trusted users is recommended.

Apache Nutch versions 1.10 through 1.22 contain a critical vulnerability involving missing authorization in the Nutch Server REST API. This flaw allows unauthorized access to the service, leading to potential information disclosure and denial of service due to improper resource shutdown and job interruption. The vulnerability is addressed by removing the Nutch Server in version 1.23. Users unable to upgrade should restrict access to trusted users only.

CVE-2026-41870 is a high severity vulnerability in Apache Nutch versions 1.11 through 1.22 affecting the Nutch REST API. It involves missing authorization controls, leading to risks such as code injection, unsafe reflection, and improper control of dynamically managed code resources. The vulnerability allows unauthorized users with limited privileges to potentially execute harmful actions. Apache Nutch 1.23 removes the vulnerable Nutch Server component, mitigating this issue. Users unable to upgrade should restrict access to trusted users only.

The Checkout Custom Fields Builder for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.5. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to install and activate an arbitrary attacker-hosted plugin, resulting in remote code execution on the server. The required nonce is emitted inline on all admin pages accessible to subscribers when WooCommerce is inactive, meaning any subscriber-level user can harvest it and trigger the exploit without any additional privileges.

The WPLP Cookie Consent WordPress plugin before 4.4.2 does not perform nonce or capability checks on several of its settings AJAX actions, allowing any authenticated user, such as a subscriber, to read and destroy scan data belonging to the administrator and to overwrite the WPLP Cookie Consent WordPress plugin before 4.4.2's stored configuration.

The WPLP Cookie Consent WordPress plugin before 4.4.2 does not perform nonce or capability checks on one of its cookie scanner AJAX actions, allowing any authenticated user, such as a subscriber, to read back the automated scan schedule the administrator configured.

The Masteriyo LMS WordPress plugin before 3.4.0 does not perform any authorization check before returning a course enrolment record over its REST API, allowing unauthenticated users to read any learner's enrolment status, timestamps and course-progress data by walking sequential record identifiers. A related gap lets any enrolled user retrieve other learners' enrolment records as well.

The WPLP Cookie Consent WordPress plugin before 4.4.2 does not have capability or nonce checks on some of its A/B testing actions, allowing any authenticated user, such as a subscriber, to overwrite the cookie banner configuration shown to every visitor and to irreversibly reset the stored A/B test results.
