An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-16062 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Event Booking Manager for WooCommerce. 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-2026-16062/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-16062/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-16062","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-16062/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-16062","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xh9j-gpmv-5c2v"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Contributors can inject PHP objects via event content fields, potentially leading to code execution or data theft if a POP chain exists.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"deserialization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.6,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-502","name":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data"}],"description":"The Event Booking Manager for WooCommerce  WordPress plugin before 5.3.7 does not prevent the deserialization of user-controlled input in some of its event content fields, allowing users with Contributor-level access and above to inject PHP objects.
