CVE-2026-16070Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Cross-owner template type modification via mismatched identifier

Published Aug 4, 2026 · Updated Aug 4, 2026

Authorization bypass in the Brizy WordPress plugin before 2.8.19 allows remote authenticated users to alter other users' template types. The brizy_set_template_type AJAX handler authorizes a different post parameter from the template_id used to update brizy_template_type metadata. Contributor access, a valid Brizy nonce, and another user's template ID are required; the effect is limited to changing that template's type assignment.
