An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-109515 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: properfraction MailOptin – Popup, Optin Forms \u0026 Email Newsletters for Mailchimp, HubSpot, AWeber Etc.. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-109515/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-109515/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-109515","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-109515/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-109515","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f6hj-w62g-r97p"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can take over any WordPress account, including administrators, by manipulating user registration parameters in the MailOptin plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-269","name":"Improper Privilege Management"}],"description":"The MailOptin – Popup, Optin Forms \u0026 Email Newsletters for Mailchimp, HubSpot, AWeber Etc. plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.78.6 This is due to the `subscribe_to_email_list` endpoint accepting an attacker-supplied `optin_data[form_custom_field_mappings]` parameter without any allow-list validation on destination keys, allowing the attacker-controlled mapping to override the administrator's saved mapping and pass arbitrary `wp_users` column names — including `ID` and `user_pass` — directly into `wp_insert_user()` via the `subscribe()` function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to force `wp_insert_user()` into UPDATE mode on any existing account by supplying a target user's numeric `ID`, overwrite that account's password with a pre-hashed value of their choosing, and thereby take over any WordPress user account — including administrators — leading to full site compromise. Exploitation requires that a WordPress User Registration opt-in form is published somewhere on the site, though the form's UUID is visible in page source and no authentication, nonce, or capability check is required to reach the vulnerable endpoint.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"MailOptin \u003c= 1.2.78.6 - Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation to 'form_custom_field_mappings' Parameter","id":"CVE-2026-109515","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"The Bot for Telegram on WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass leading to Account Takeover in all versions","id":"CVE-2026-109516"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"NotificationX \u003c= 3.3.3 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'name' Parameter via popup-submit REST Route","id":"CVE-2026-109513"},"products":["MailOptin – Popup, Optin Forms \u0026 Email Newsletters for Mailchimp, HubSpot, AWeber Etc."],"published":"2026-10-16","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-16","vendors":["properfraction"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can take over any WordPress account, including administrators, by manipulating user registration parameters in the MailOptin plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-109515/"}
