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-2026-18052 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown ManageWP Worker. 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-2026-18052/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18052/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-18052","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18052/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-18052","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3mmr-x4g9-xv4w"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can gain administrator sessions by replaying unsigned auto-login links, bypassing authentication in the ManageWP Worker plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"The ManageWP Worker WordPress plugin before 4.9.37 does not bind the account being logged in to the signature which authorises the login, nor prevent an already used login link from being replayed, allowing attackers who obtain such a link to gain a session as any user on the site, including an administrator.","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":"ManageWP Worker \u003c 4.9.37 - Unauthenticated Authentication Bypass via Unsigned Auto-Login Parameters","id":"CVE-2026-18052","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Auth bypass in HivePress Authentication","id":"CVE-2026-18056"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in W3 Total Cache","id":"CVE-2026-18051"},"products":["ManageWP Worker"],"published":"2026-08-22","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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-23","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Attackers can gain administrator sessions by replaying unsigned auto-login links, bypassing authentication in the ManageWP Worker plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18052/"}
