CVE-2026-13156
MEDIUM 5.4 PoC AVAILABLEThe MailerSend WordPress plugin before 1.0.8 does not perform a nonce check on its configuration-delete action (it verifies the manage_options capability but ignores the nonce), so an attacker can trick a logged-in administrator into visiting a crafted page that wipes the MailerSend WordPress plugin before 1.0.8's SMTP configuration and deactivates the MailerSend WordPress plugin before 1.0.8, breaking the site's email delivery.
Public exploit or PoC code exists. Modeled probability is still low, but the barrier to attack is reduced — watch closely.
