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-2026-28005 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Nexcess Kadence WooCommerce Email Designer. 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-2026-28005/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-28005/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-28005","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-28005/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-28005","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-x6xp-4xjv-q7c6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can escalate privileges in the Kadence WooCommerce Email Designer plugin for WordPress.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation in Kadence WooCommerce Email Designer \u003c= 1.5.19 versions.","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":"WordPress Kadence WooCommerce Email Designer plugin \u003c= 1.5.19 - Privilege Escalation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-28005","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Yungen theme \u003c= 1.0.12 - Local File Inclusion vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-28006"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Business Directory plugin \u003c= 6.4.25 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-28004"},"products":["Kadence WooCommerce Email Designer"],"published":"2026-08-06","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":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-06","vendors":["Nexcess"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can escalate privileges in the Kadence WooCommerce Email Designer plugin for WordPress.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-28005/"}
