## What is CVE-2026-0912?

CVE-2026-0912 is a high-severity missing authorization vulnerability in Toret Manager, published on 19 Feb 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

The Toret Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data that can lead to privilege escalation due to a missing capability check on the 'trman_save_option' function and on the 'trman_save_option_items' in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.7. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to update arbitrary options on the WordPress site. This can be leveraged to update the default role for registration to administrator and enable user registration for attackers to gain administrative user access to a vulnerable site.

Weakness: CWE-269 (Improper Privilege Management)
