Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
CVE-2026-25391 is a broken access control issue in the WordPress WP Wand plugin, package ai-content-generation, affecting versions up to 1.3.07. An authenticated user may perform actions they should not be authorized to perform. The published severity is medium, with limited integrity and availability impact and no stated confidentiality impact.
Executive priority
Treat as a medium-priority WordPress application risk. Prioritize sites that allow user registration, have many low-privileged users, or support business-critical publishing workflows. There is no cited evidence of active exploitation, but broken authorization can enable unauthorized changes or disruption.
Technical view
The issue is CWE-862 Missing Authorization in WP Grids WP Wand ai-content-generation through version 1.3.07. CVSS 3.1 is 5.4: network exploitable, low attack complexity, low privileges required, no user interaction, unchanged scope, no confidentiality impact, low integrity and availability impact.
Likely exposure
Exposure is limited to WordPress sites running WP Wand ai-content-generation plugin version 1.3.07 or earlier. The CVSS vector indicates exploitation requires a low-privileged authenticated account, so public registration or many contributor-level accounts could increase practical risk.
Exploitation context
The source bundle does not show CISA KEV listing or public active exploitation. Patchstack identifies the vulnerability class and affected range, but no exploit details or abuse evidence are provided in the supplied sources.
Researcher notes
Evidence is limited to CVE metadata and Patchstack’s vulnerability entry. No fix version, proof of concept, or exploitation-in-the-wild claim is included in the supplied sources. Avoid assuming unauthenticated impact; CVSS states privileges required are low.
Mitigation direction
- Inventory WordPress sites for WP Wand ai-content-generation plugin usage.
- Identify plugin versions and flag installations at or below 1.3.07.
- Check Patchstack and vendor guidance for an updated fixed version or workaround.
- Restrict unnecessary WordPress user accounts, especially low-privileged accounts.
- Disable the plugin where business impact is acceptable until guidance is confirmed.
Validation and detection
- Confirm whether the plugin slug ai-content-generation is installed on each WordPress site.
- Review plugin version information in WordPress administration or asset inventory.
- Check whether public user registration is enabled on affected sites.
- Review recent administrative activity for unexpected plugin-related changes.
- Document remediation status and reassess after vendor or Patchstack updates.
