An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-15248 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Meta Box. 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-2026-15248/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-15248/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-15248","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-15248/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-15248","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vpwf-36p2-3fwr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Low-privilege users can delete arbitrary media attachments belonging to other users due to missing authorization checks in the Meta Box plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"The Meta Box WordPress plugin before 5.13.1 does not verify that a user is authorized to delete the supplied attachment before deleting it, allowing users with a low-privilege role such as Contributor to permanently delete arbitrary media attachments belonging to other users.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Meta Box \u003c 5.13.1 - Contributor+ Arbitrary Attachment Deletion via IDOR","id":"CVE-2026-15248","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Patterns Kit \u003c= 1.0.3 - Contributor+ Stored XSS via YouTube Popup Link","id":"CVE-2026-15249"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Search Atlas SEO \u003c 2.6.24 - Subscriber+ Google Service Account Credential Overwrite/Deletion","id":"CVE-2026-15247"},"products":["Meta Box"],"published":"2026-08-02","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":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-05","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Low-privilege users can delete arbitrary media attachments belonging to other users due to missing authorization checks in the Meta Box plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-15248/"}
