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-2026-40780 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Liquid Web / StellarWP BookIt. 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-2026-40780/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-40780/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-40780","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-40780/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-40780","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6wpw-j4xp-qqv8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can bypass authentication via password recovery to take over accounts in the BookIt WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-288","name":"Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel"}],"description":"Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel vulnerability in Liquid Web / StellarWP BookIt allows Password Recovery Exploitation.\n\nThis issue affects BookIt: from n/a before 2.5.4.1.","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 BookIt plugin \u003c 2.5.4.1 - Broken Authentication vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-40780","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":"WordPress ReviewX plugin \u003c= 2.3.6 - Broken Authentication vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-40781"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Link Library plugin \u003c= 7.8.8 - Arbitrary File Deletion vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-40779"},"products":["BookIt"],"published":"2026-06-02","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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-06-02","vendors":["Liquid Web / StellarWP"]},"summary":"An attacker can bypass authentication via password recovery to take over accounts in the BookIt WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-40780/"}
