CVE-2026-75971
The ShopEngine Elementor WooCommerce Builder Addon – All in One WooCommerce Solution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 4.9.4. This is due to the `rum_importer()` function being registered on the WordPress core `import_start` action hook with no plugin-owned capability check and no allowlist filtering, causing arbitrary `<wp_option>` name/value pairs parsed from an attacker-supplied WXR import file to be passed directly to `update_option()`.
Leer descripción completaMostrar menos
This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Shop Manager-level access and above, to write arbitrary WordPress options — most critically setting `users_can_register` to `1` and `default_role` to `administrator` — enabling open self-registration of Administrator accounts and full site takeover. This is exploitable by Shop Manager-level users because WooCommerce grants that role the `import` capability, allowing it to reach the WordPress Importer flow that fires the `import_start` hook on which `rum_importer()` is registered, contrary to the assumption that the hook is restricted to Administrators.

"value": "El plugin ShopEngine Elementor WooCommerce Builder Addon - All in One WooCommerce Solution para WordPress es vulnerable a escalada de privilegios en todas las versiones hasta la 4.9.4, inclusive. Esto se debe a que la función 'rum_importer()' está registrada en el hook de acción 'import_start' del núcleo de WordPress sin una verificación de capacidad propiedad del plugin y sin filtrado de lista de permitidos, lo que provoca que pares arbitrarios de nombre/valor <wp_option> analizados desde un archivo de importación WXR suministrado por un atacante se pasen directamente a 'update_option()'. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel de Gerente de Tienda y superior, escriban opciones arbitrarias de WordPress - lo más crítico, estableciendo 'users_can_register' en '1' y 'default_role' en 'administrator' - lo que permite el auto-registro abierto de cuentas de Administrador y la toma de control total del sitio. Esto es explotable por usuarios de nivel de Gerente de Tienda porque WooCommerce otorga a ese rol la capacidad 'import', lo que le permite alcanzar el flujo del Importador de WordPress que dispara el hook 'import_start' en el que 'rum_importer()' está registrado, contrario a la suposición de que el hook está restringido a Administradores."
