CVE-2026-32481Network attack vector

Sensitive-data access via authentication bypass

Published Aug 18, 2026 · Updated Aug 18, 2026

Authentication bypass in Ezoic WordPress Plugin through 2.22.11 allows remote attackers to read sensitive data via unspecified vectors. Patchstack and the published CVE record describe broken authentication but do not identify the endpoint, token check, cookie validation, or alternate path that accepts unauthenticated requests. Exposure is limited to network-reachable WordPress sites running the plugin, and the retrieved scoring records bound the published impact to confidentiality rather than service interruption or code execution.
