Subscriber restricted-function access via missing permission checks
Published Jan 23, 2026 · Updated Jan 23, 2026
Missing authorization in SiteLock Security 5.0.2 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to invoke restricted functions. SiteLock's 5.0.3 changelog says admin permission checks were added, but neither the vendor nor the CNA identifies the affected handler or operation. Subscriber-level access is required, and published evidence does not describe the restricted action's specific effect.
