{"cve":"CVE-2026-19798","nvd":{"published":"2026-10-16T07:17:13.217","modified":"2026-10-16T15:17:15.747","status":"Deferred","description":"The Wp Map Block plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the set_status() and bulk() functions in the Maps_Controller REST controller in versions up to, and including, 3.0.0. The plugin's permission_callback (can_edit()) only verifies current_user_can('edit_posts') and performs no object-level ownership check or verification of publish-level capabilities, while the handlers pass the caller-controlled map ID directly to wp_update_post() (and wp_delete_post() in the bulk delete branch) to change post_status between publish and draft. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to publish or unpublish (and bulk-delete) any wpmb_map post, including maps owned by administrators, which hides published maps from all public pages site-wide or forces draft maps to become publicly visible.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","score":4.3},"cwes":["CWE-862"],"references":["https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-map-block/tags/3.0.0/includes/Rest/Maps_Controller.php#L124","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-map-block/tags/3.0.0/includes/Rest/Maps_Controller.php#L237","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-map-block/tags/3.0.0/includes/Rest/Maps_Controller.php#L262","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-map-block/tags/3.0.0/includes/Rest/Maps_Controller.php#L63","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?reponame=&old=3730836%40wp-map-block&new=3730836%40wp-map-block"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T23:00:53.604569364+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-19798","score":0.00204,"percentile":0.10238,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
