FKIE_CVE-2026-8976
Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-06-06 00:16 - Updated: 2026-07-23 07:10
Severity
Summary
The RSS Aggregator by Feedzy – Feed to Post, Autoblogging, News & YouTube Video Feeds Aggregator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.7. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to create and execute RSS import jobs, purge (force-delete) all posts associated with any import job, clear import error logs, and enumerate taxonomy terms and post meta_key names. The nonce required to reach these sub-handlers is leaked to any user with the edit_posts capability via the feedzyjs localized script injected into the block editor, meaning no privileged nonce theft or separate exploit step is required for Contributor-level users.

"value": "El plugin RSS Aggregator by Feedzy - Feed to Post, Autoblogging, News \u0026 YouTube Video Feeds Aggregator para WordPress es vulnerable a un bypass de autorizaci\u00f3n en todas las versiones hasta la 5.1.7, inclusive. Esto se debe a que el plugin no verifica correctamente que un usuario est\u00e9 autorizado para realizar una acci\u00f3n. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel de colaborador y superior, creen y ejecuten trabajos de importaci\u00f3n RSS, purguen (eliminen forzosamente) todas las publicaciones asociadas con cualquier trabajo de importaci\u00f3n, borren registros de errores de importaci\u00f3n y enumeren t\u00e9rminos de taxonom\u00eda y nombres de meta_key de publicaciones. El nonce requerido para acceder a estos sub-controladores se filtra a cualquier usuario con la capacidad edit_posts a trav\u00e9s del script localizado feedzyjs inyectado en el editor de bloques, lo que significa que no se requiere robo de nonce privilegiado ni un paso de exploit separado para usuarios de nivel de colaborador."
