An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-15015 exists.\n\nAffected product: cascadiawebservices MountDev AI MCP Connector for WordPress. 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-2026-15015/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-15015/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-15015","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-15015/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-15015","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8g44-6rrm-mf2w"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can escalate privileges to administrator by exploiting OAuth authorization flaws in the MountDev AI MCP Connector plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"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-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"The MountDev AI MCP Connector for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.1. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to obtain an administrator-bound OAuth Bearer token via a self-registered client, granting full administrator-equivalent access to the plugin's MCP tool surface and all exposed WordPress content, users, and options. This is exploitable by combining the publicly accessible Dynamic Client Registration endpoint, which allows unauthenticated callers to register arbitrary OAuth clients with an attacker-controlled redirect_uri, with the unprotected authorization endpoint to complete the full OAuth flow without any administrator interaction.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2026-09-24","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":0,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":"2026-09-24T10:45:37Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/les-k/wp-secure-mcp","stars":0,"title":"A WordPress plugin exposing an MCP server over the REST API, with the security model as the point -- closes the CVE-2026-15015 OAuth-bypass shape by never having that surface at all."},{"date":null,"kind":"nuclei","ref":"http/cves/2026/CVE-2026-15015.yaml","stars":null,"title":"MountDev AI MCP Connector \u003c= 1.6.1 - Unauthenticated Admin OAuth Token Exposure"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Auth bypass in MountDev AI MCP Connector for WordPress","id":"CVE-2026-15015","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Paid Memberships Pro – Content Restriction, User Registration, \u0026 Paid Subscriptions","id":"CVE-2026-15016"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SMS Alert \u003c= 3.9.7 - Unauthenticated Authentication Bypass to Account Takeover via 'billing_phone' Parameter","id":"CVE-2026-15014"},"products":["MountDev AI MCP Connector for WordPress"],"published":"2026-07-23","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)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"MIT","name":"Nuclei templates"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-07-23","vendors":["cascadiawebservices"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can escalate privileges to administrator by exploiting OAuth authorization flaws in the MountDev AI MCP Connector plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-15015/"}
