What is CVE-2026-123702?

The Security For WooCommerce plugin for WordPress versions up to 1.0.16 contains a significant authorization bypass vulnerability. This flaw allows unauthorized users to regenerate sensitive secret keys and salts within the site's configuration file. As a result, it enables these users to log out all authenticated users from the site. Furthermore, if the server lacks access to the WordPress.org API, the alteration to the configuration file can lead to the website becoming inaccessible, potentially causing extensive downtime.

Affected Version(s)

Security For WooCommerce 0 <= 1.0.16

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)
