Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-40727 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Groundhogg. 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-2026-40727/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-40727/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-40727","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-40727/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-40727","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-x77p-2pm4-6632"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker can delete arbitrary files on the server via a path traversal vulnerability in the Groundhogg WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.7,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Sales Representative Arbitrary File Deletion in Groundhogg \u003c= 4.4 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 Groundhogg plugin \u003c= 4.4 - Arbitrary File Deletion vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-40727","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Magazine Blocks plugin \u003c= 1.8.3 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-40728"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress User Registration Stripe plugin \u003c= 1.3.14 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-40726"},"products":["Groundhogg"],"published":"2026-06-15","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":"2026-06-15","vendors":["Groundhogg"]},"summary":"An attacker can delete arbitrary files on the server via a path traversal vulnerability in the Groundhogg WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-40727/"}
