CVE Catalog

CVE-2026-100109

CriticalCVSS 9.8
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

The Security For WooCommerce WordPress plugin from 1.0.10 to 1.0.16 does not perform capability checks when creating users through an action available to unauthenticated visitors, and lets the caller choose the new account's role. This allows unauthenticated attackers to create administrator accounts and take over the site.

Risk Assessment

Full takeover of the WordPress site, including access to WooCommerce customer and order data and a foothold for further attacks. The risk is high because exploitation requires no authentication.

Recommendation

Update the Security For WooCommerce plugin to a version later than 1.0.16. Until then, consider disabling the plugin or restricting access to the site.
