Unauthenticated WordPress privilege escalation
Published Dec 31, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Incorrect privilege assignment in SunnyKai Insya Magic 1.0.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to gain elevated WordPress privileges. Public sources do not identify the affected handler or exact privileged operation; the 1.0.6 changelog states that nonce verification and capability checks were added. No account or user interaction is required, and successful exploitation grants elevated privileges that can affect site data and availability.
