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-2026-18231 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown WP Directory Kit. 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-2026-18231/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18231/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-18231","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18231/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-18231","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3ghx-fqrc-hvc9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can retrieve usernames and email addresses of plugin users due to missing authorization checks in an AJAX action.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"The WP Directory Kit WordPress plugin before 1.5.7 does not perform any authorization check on one of its public AJAX actions and returns unfiltered database rows, allowing unauthenticated attackers to retrieve the usernames and email addresses of users holding the WP Directory Kit WordPress plugin before 1.5.7's own roles.","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":"WP Directory Kit \u003c 1.5.7 - Unauthenticated User Email Disclosure via select_2_ajax_user","id":"CVE-2026-18231","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WP Directory Kit \u003c= 1.5.7 - Unauthenticated Unpublished Listing Disclosure via map_infowindow","id":"CVE-2026-18232"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WP Directory Kit \u003c 1.5.6 - Subscriber+ SQL Injection via section Parameter","id":"CVE-2026-18230"},"products":["WP Directory Kit"],"published":"2026-08-19","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":"2026-08-19","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can retrieve usernames and email addresses of plugin users due to missing authorization checks in an AJAX action.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18231/"}
