Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-87828 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Seraphinite Accelerator. 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-2026-87828/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-87828/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-87828","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-87828/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-87828","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pwq8-qxp8-42qc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated subscribers can cause a denial of service in the WordPress admin area by exploiting a missing capability check in the Seraphinite Accelerator plugin.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.7,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-400","name":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption"}],"description":"The Seraphinite Accelerator WordPress plugin before 2.29.24 does not perform a capability check on one of its state-update AJAX actions, allowing authenticated users such as subscribers to write a malformed value that causes an uncaught error on every subsequent admin page load, making the entire admin area inaccessible to all administrators (denial of service).","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":"Seraphinite Accelerator \u003c 2.29.24 - Subscriber+ DoS via seraph_accel_State Update","id":"CVE-2026-87828","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":"Checkout Field Manager \u003c 7.9.7 - Subscriber+ Arbitrary Attachment Deletion via Unvalidated Attachment ID Reparenting","id":"CVE-2026-87829"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"KGUARD DVR unauthenticated remote command execution vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-87827"},"products":["Seraphinite Accelerator"],"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 subscribers can cause a denial of service in the WordPress admin area by exploiting a missing capability check in the Seraphinite Accelerator plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-87828/"}
