CVE-2025-24588Network attack vector

Account disconnection via unverified disconnect action

Published Jan 24, 2025 · Updated May 11, 2026

Missing authorization in Patreon WordPress 1.9.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to disconnect a user's Patreon account. The user-account disconnect action processes a requested disconnection without verifying a WordPress nonce, permitting an unauthorized state change. No authentication or user interaction is required; exploitation removes the affected account's Patreon linkage and disrupts access to gated content.
