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-2026-78259 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: WPLegalPages. 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-2026-78259/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-78259/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-78259","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-78259/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-78259","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jh3h-655f-v3c9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can bypass authentication in the WPLegalPages WordPress plugin, potentially gaining unauthorized access.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-288","name":"Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel"}],"description":"Unauthenticated Broken Authentication in WPLegalPages \u003c= 3.7.0 versions.","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 WPLegalPages plugin \u003c= 3.7.0 - Broken Authentication vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-78259","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 Epayco plugin \u003c= 8.4.6 - SQL Injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-78260"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Booking and Rental Manager plugin \u003c= 2.7.5 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-78258"},"products":["WPLegalPages"],"published":"2026-08-24","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":"2026-08-25","vendors":["WP Legal Pages"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can bypass authentication in the WPLegalPages WordPress plugin, potentially gaining unauthorized access.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-78259/"}
