CVE-2026-8787

Estado: AplazadaAlta (8.8)—

The Firebase Support & Chat Management plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.1. This is due to the `firebase_auth()` function authenticating the request as the WordPress user whose email is supplied in the `user_email` POST parameter without verifying ownership of that email (no Firebase ID token signature/issuer/audience verification). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to log in as an arbitrary existing user — including an Administrator — by submitting that user's email address to the `acb_firebase_auth` AJAX action, resulting in full account takeover.

CVSS

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).

🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK

Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.

Autenticación manipulable sin verificación de token Firebase; atacante autenticado (PR:L) con red (AV:N) escala a admin. Acceso sin verificación de propiedad de email (CWE-269) permite takeover de cuenta.

Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
