Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-18960 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Block User Account. 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-2026-18960/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18960/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-18960","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18960/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-18960","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-c64r-rhpr-pqr5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass","data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Blocked users retain REST API access via application passwords, bypassing account restrictions in the Block User Account plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"The Block User Account WordPress plugin before 2.0.1 does not enforce its account block on every authentication path, allowing a blocked user who holds an application password created before the block to retain their full role-level read and write access through the REST API.","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":"Block User Account \u003c 2.0.1 - Subscriber+ Account Block Bypass via Application Passwords","id":"CVE-2026-18960","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 Social Login, Passkeys, Magic Link \u0026 Email OTP – Passwordless Login by VentraConnect","id":"CVE-2026-18961"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"yushine InnoShop Files Endpoint panel-api.php destroyFiles path traversal","id":"CVE-2026-18959"},"products":["Block User Account"],"published":"2026-08-10","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":"2026-08-11","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Blocked users retain REST API access via application passwords, bypassing account restrictions in the Block User Account plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18960/"}
