What is CVE-2026-15215?

The Subscriptions for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress has a security flaw where it fails to validate user permissions when installing and activating the plugin via a nonce-protected AJAX action. This oversight allows users with the Shop Manager role, who ordinarily lack sufficient management capabilities, to exploit the vulnerability and execute arbitrary code. As a result, unauthorized actions could be performed, compromising the integrity and security of the WordPress site.

Affected Version(s)

Subscriptions for WooCommerce 0 < 2.0.1

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
