Unauthenticated user-data export via public form handler
Published Jan 7, 2026 · Updated Jan 7, 2026
Missing authorization in Latest Registered Users 1.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to export WordPress user data as CSV. The rnd_handle_form_submit function accepts the public admin_post_nopriv_my_simple_form action without a capability check or nonce validation. No authentication or user interaction is required; the resulting CSV includes complete user details except passwords and sensitive tokens.
