Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation in Frontend Admin by DynamiApps for WordPress

CVE-2026-6226

What is CVE-2026-6226?

The Frontend Admin plugin developed by DynamiApps for WordPress contains serious security flaws that allow unauthenticated attackers to escalate privileges. The vulnerability arises from improper handling of form submissions, permitting attackers to inject arbitrary form definitions. The validate_form() function neglects traditional database lookup methods and processes attacker-controlled structures directly, enabling malicious users to craft custom forms. Specifically, the attacker can manipulate role definitions within the form data to gain unauthorized administrator access. This vulnerability is present in all versions up to and including 3.29.2, representing a significant risk for WordPress sites utilizing this plugin.
