CRITICAL KEV NUCLEI LAB

WordPress < 7.0.2 - REST API batch-route confusion and SQL injection issue leading to Remote Code Execution

Title source: cna
STIX 2.1

Exploitation Summary

CVE-2026-63030 is actively exploited and listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, added July 21, 2026. EIP tracks 84 public exploits from researchers including Unclecheng-li, 0xsha, GhostInExile, including a Metasploit module exploits/multi/http/wp_batch_desync_rce. A Nuclei detection template is also available.

AI-analyzed exploit summary This PoC exploits a chained vulnerability in WordPress (CVE-2026-63030 + CVE-2026-60137) to achieve unauthenticated admin account creation. It leverages a REST API batch route misalignment to trigger a SQL injection via WP_Query's author__not_in parameter, then abuses WordPress's changeset reentry mechanism to elevate privileges.

Description

WordPress 6.9.x before 6.9.5 and 7.0.x before 7.0.2 is affected by a REST API batch endpoint route confusion issue which, combined with the author__not_in WP_Query SQL Injection (CVE-2026-60137), could allow an attacker to perform SQL Injection and achieve Remote Code Execution.
