CVE-2026-24568Network attack vector

Unauthenticated settings changes via unchecked AJAX permissions

Published Jan 23, 2026 · Updated Jan 23, 2026

Missing authorization in WP Travel 11.1.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to perform unauthorized settings actions through AJAX requests. The wp_travel_update_settings and wptravel_get_settings handlers omit permission checks, while wp_travel_reset_cached_page_list omits both nonce and permission validation. No WordPress account is required; the bounded impact is unauthorized low-integrity changes to plugin settings or cached-page state.
