CVE-2026-6506

HIGH

InfusedWoo Pro <= 5.1.2 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Missing Authorization to Privilege Escalation via Arbitrary User Meta Update

Title source: cna
STIX 2.1

Description

The InfusedWoo Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.2. This is due to the infusedwoo_gdpr_upddata() function missing authorization and capability checks, as well as lacking restrictions on which user meta keys can be updated. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to update their own wp_capabilities user meta to grant themselves Administrator role privileges.
