CVE-2026-93549
HIGH 8.8 PoC AVAILABLEThe CoCart WordPress plugin before 4.9.7 does not scope its REST API authentication filter to its own endpoints, which disables WordPress core's REST nonce protection for every route, allowing an attacker to perform a cross-site request forgery attack that creates a new administrator account using a logged-in administrator's session.
Public exploit or PoC code exists. Modeled probability is still low, but the barrier to attack is reduced — watch closely.
