An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-76553 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown WP Import Export Lite. 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-2026-76553/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-76553/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-76553","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-76553/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-76553","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-j4q7-794x-44pp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users with delegated capabilities can delete arbitrary directories and files via path traversal in WP Import Export Lite.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-73","name":"External Control of File Name or Path"}],"description":"The WP Import Export Lite WordPress plugin before 3.9.33 does not validate a path taken from stored, user-supplied data before recursively deleting the directory it resolves to, allowing users to whom an administrator has delegated a WP Import Export Lite WordPress plugin before 3.9.33 capability to delete arbitrary directories, and every file within them, including outside the web root.","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":"WP Import Export Lite \u003c 3.9.33 - Authenticated Arbitrary Directory Deletion via Template Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2026-76553","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":"WP Import Export Lite \u003c 3.9.35 - Authenticated Privilege Escalation via User Import","id":"CVE-2026-76554"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WP Import Export Lite \u003c 3.9.33 - Authenticated Arbitrary File Upload via Remote Image Import","id":"CVE-2026-76552"},"products":["WP Import Export Lite"],"published":"2026-09-16","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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-09-17","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Authenticated users with delegated capabilities can delete arbitrary directories and files via path traversal in WP Import Export Lite.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-76553/"}
