Unauthenticated page modification via missing capability check
Published Feb 5, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Missing authorization in SeedProd Website Builder 6.15.21 and earlier allows remote attackers to alter special-page content. The seedprod_lite_new_lpage function accepts an unauthenticated request without checking a WordPress capability and updates the configured coming-soon, maintenance, login, or 404 page. No account or user interaction is required; affected requests can replace those pages’ content and leave them blank.
