What is CVE-2026-6506?

The InfusedWoo Pro plugin for WordPress presents a vulnerability that allows authenticated users to escalate their privileges. Specifically, the lack of authorization and capability checks in the infusedwoo_gdpr_upddata() function means that users with subscriber-level access and above can modify their own wp_capabilities user meta. This allows them to grant themselves Administrator role privileges, posing a significant security risk.

Affected Version(s)

InfusedWoo Pro 0 <= 5.1.2
