Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-18046 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Cookie Consent. 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-2026-18046/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18046/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-18046","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18046/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-18046","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xcj8-382p-cc46"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can overwrite the geolocation license key due to missing authorization checks, disrupting consent banner targeting.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-863","name":"Incorrect Authorization"}],"description":"The Cookie Consent  WordPress plugin before 0.0.10 does not correctly enforce its intended administrator-only capability check on the REST route that stores its geolocation service license key, so the route falls back to an authentication-only gate, allowing any authenticated user such as a subscriber to overwrite the stored key and disrupt the Cookie Consent  WordPress plugin before 0.0.10's geolocation-based consent banner targeting.","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":"Cookie Consent \u003c 0.0.10 - Subscriber+ MaxMind License Key Update","id":"CVE-2026-18046","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":"Dogtag-pki: pki-core: redhat-pki: pki: acme admin enable/disable endpoint authentication bypass via trailing slash","id":"CVE-2026-18047"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Estatik Real Estate Plugin \u003c 4.3.4 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary-Recipient Mail Relay via Signed-Value Mismatch","id":"CVE-2026-18044"},"products":["Cookie Consent"],"published":"2026-08-12","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":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-12","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Authenticated users can overwrite the geolocation license key due to missing authorization checks, disrupting consent banner targeting.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18046/"}
