CVE-2026-4021
HighSummary
Wtyczka Contest Gallery dla WordPressa jest podatna na obejście uwierzytelniania, co prowadzi do przejęcia konta administratora we wszystkich wersjach do i włącznie z 28.1.5. Problem wynika z użycia adresu e-mail użytkownika w klauzuli `WHERE ID = %s` zamiast numerycznego identyfikatora użytkownika oraz z nieautoryzowanego punktu końcowego logowania opartego na kluczu.
Risk Assessment
Atakujący mogą przejąć dowolne konto administratora WordPressa, co prowadzi do pełnej kontroli nad stroną. To stwarza poważne zagrożenie dla bezpieczeństwa organizacji i jej danych.
Recommendation
Zaleca się aktualizację wtyczki Contest Gallery do najnowszej wersji, aby usunąć tę podatność. Dodatkowo, warto rozważyć wprowadzenie dodatkowych środków zabezpieczających, takich jak ograniczenie dostępu do punktów końcowych AJAX.

Original NVD description (English source)
The Contest Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to an authentication bypass leading to admin account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 28.1.5. This is due to the email confirmation handler in `users-registry-check-after-email-or-pin-confirmation.php` using the user's email string in a `WHERE ID = %s` clause instead of the numeric user ID, combined with an unauthenticated key-based login endpoint in `ajax-functions-frontend.php`. When the non-default `RegMailOptional=1` setting is enabled, an attacker can register with a crafted email starting with the target user ID (e.g., `[email protected]`), trigger the confirmation flow to overwrite the admin's `user_activation_key` via MySQL integer coercion, and then use the `post_cg1l_login_user_by_key` AJAX action to authenticate as the admin without any credentials. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to take over any WordPress administrator account and gain full site control.
