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-2026-40809 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Rara Themes Metro Magazine. 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-2026-40809/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-40809/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-40809","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-40809/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-40809","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-57gx-7458-mhwq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress theme","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass access controls in the Metro Magazine WordPress theme to perform unauthorized actions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"Missing Authorization vulnerability in Rara Themes Metro Magazine allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.\n\nThis issue affects Metro Magazine: from n/a through 1.4.1.","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 Metro Magazine theme \u003c= 1.4.1 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-40809","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Unauthenticated SQLi in userinfo Endpoint","id":"CVE-2026-40810"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Jetpack VideoPress plugin \u003c= 3.6 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-40808"},"products":["Metro Magazine"],"published":"2026-06-16","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":"2026-06-16","vendors":["Rara Themes"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass access controls in the Metro Magazine WordPress theme to perform unauthorized actions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-40809/"}
