This is due to a missing capability check in the nc_setOption() function, which is exposed via the nc.setOption XML-RPC method. The function authenticates the user via $wp_xmlrpc_server->login() (verifying credentials are valid) but does not perform any authorization check such as current_user_can('manage_options'). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to update arbitrary WordPress options via XML-RPC requests. This can be leveraged to change the default_role option to 'administrator' and then register a new administrator account, achieving full privilege escalation and site takeover."}],"id":"CVE-2026-4297","lastModified":"2026-06-25T13:26:11.740","metrics":{"cvssMetricV31":[{"cvssData":{"attackComplexity":"LOW","attackVector":"NETWORK","availabilityImpact":"HIGH","baseScore":8.8,"baseSeverity":"HIGH","confidentialityImpact":"HIGH","integrityImpact":"HIGH","privilegesRequired":"LOW","scope":"UNCHANGED","userInteraction":"NONE","vectorString":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"exploitabilityScore":2.8,"impactScore":5.9,"source":"security@wordfence.com","type":"Secondary"}],"ssvcV203":[{"source":"134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0","ssvcData":{"id":"CVE-2026-4297","options":[{"exploitation":"none"},{"automatable":"no"},{"technicalImpact":"total"}],"role":"CISA Coordinator","timestamp":"2026-06-24T14:49:59.958116Z","version":"2.0.3"}}]},"published":"2026-06-24T07:16:27.310","references":[{"source":"security@wordfence.com","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/newscred-publishing/tags/0.0.31/newscred.php#L264"},{"source":"security@wordfence.com","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/newscred-publishing/tags/0.0.31/newscred.php#L265"},{"source":"security@wordfence.com","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/newscred-publishing/tags/0.0.31/newscred.php#L272"},{"source":"security@wordfence.com","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/newscred-publishing/tags/0.0.31/newscred.php#L44"},{"source":"security@wordfence.com","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/newscred-publishing/trunk/newscred.php#L264"},{"source":"security@wordfence.com","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/newscred-publishing/trunk/newscred.php#L265"},{"source":"security@wordfence.com","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/newscred-publishing/trunk/newscred.php#L272"},{"source":"security@wordfence.com","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/newscred-publishing/trunk/newscred.php#L44"},{"source":"security@wordfence.com","url":"https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/47e53fd3-4e3f-433a-8e70-3a58c864184a?source=cve"}],"sourceIdentifier":"security@wordfence.com","vulnStatus":"Deferred","weaknesses":[{"description":[{"lang":"en","value":"CWE-862"}],"source":"security@wordfence.com","type":"Secondary"}]}
