What is CVE-2026-18049?
The WP Photo Album Plus plugin for WordPress prior to version 9.2.07.002 contains a security flaw that allows unauthorized users to access sensitive configuration data. This occurs because the plugin does not implement necessary checks on certain public endpoints and inadequately handles input values. As a result, an attacker can exploit this vulnerability to read the values of autoloaded options that comply with a specified suffix, thus exposing potentially confidential information without proper authentication.
