An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2026-60137 in the wild since at least 21 Jul 2026.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- wordpress (Bitnami): affected from 6.8.0; fixed in 6.8.6, 6.9.5, 7.0.2\n- wordpress-multisite (Bitnami): affected from 6.8.0; fixed in 6.8.6, 6.9.5, 7.0.2\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-2026-60137/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-60137/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-60137","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-60137/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-60137","record":{"aliases":["BIT-wordpress-2026-60137","BIT-wordpress-multisite-2026-60137","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-60137","MINI-cvxg-6j2r-774h","MINI-gp5r-m5x6-3h6g","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-60137"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress core","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute SQL injection via the author__not_in parameter in WP_Query if plugins or themes pass untrusted input, requiring an upgrade to WordPress.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"sql_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"wordpress","vendor":"wordpress"}],"cvss":{"score":5.9,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-89","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command"}],"description":"WordPress 6.8.x before 6.8.6, 6.9.x before 6.9.5, and 7.0.x before 7.0.2 does not properly sanitise the author__not_in parameter of WP_Query, which could allow SQL Injection when a plugin or theme passes untrusted input to the parameter.","ecosystems":["Bitnami"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2026-07-17","github_poc":10,"max_poc_stars":10,"metasploit":2,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2026-07-18T21:16:58Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/codeb0ssx/Ultimate-wp2shell","stars":10,"title":"wp2shell — Pre-authentication RCE in WordPress Core (CVE-2026-60137 + CVE-2026-63030).
