## What is CVE-2026-7456?

CVE-2026-7456 is a medium-severity missing authorization vulnerability in webocoders Udimi Tools, published on 5 Aug 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

The Udimi Tools plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the `ajax_disconnect()` function in all versions up to, and including, 3.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to delete the plugin's six configuration options — including the API key, connected Udimi user email, and tracking-script payload — effectively disconnecting the site from the configured Udimi account. The companion `ajax_connect()` handler is missing the same checks, allowing the same low-privilege attackers to overwrite those options with an attacker-supplied API key.

Weakness: CWE-862 (Missing Authorization)
