Jupiter X Core - Security Vulnerability (CVE-2026-120737)
CVE-2026-120737
The Jupiter X Core plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 4.62.0 This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to enumerate and render arbitrary published post types not intended for public listing — including Flamingo CF7 submission records containing submitter names, email addresses, phone numbers, full messages, and IP addresses — and perform meta_query boolean-oracle reads against the postmeta of any published post. Exploitation requires that a Posts or Advanced Posts widget on the site has 'Is Archive Template' enabled, which is the standard Jupiter X archive-template configuration used by most Jupiter X sites; additionally, the nonce verified by the second endpoint is minted via wp_create_nonce and printed on every frontend page as ravenTools.nonce, rendering it ineffective as an authorization barrier.

Potential Impact
Severity is MEDIUM (CVSS 5.9). Depending on deployment context, affected components may be exposed to unauthorized actions or data integrity risk.
Exploitability Assessment
Exploitability is assessed as High based on remote code execution potential, low-bar exploit prerequisites.
Primary risk drivers: remote code execution potential, low-bar exploit prerequisites
Mitigation Recommendations
Validate affected product versions, prioritize patching, and monitor references for vendor remediation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, apply compensating controls and limit exposure of vulnerable surfaces.
Detection & Monitoring
Track authentication anomalies, unexpected file writes, and suspicious plugin API activity around affected components.
Business Impact Lens
AI risk score 65/100 (Elevated, High) with priority P3 Priority. Prioritize remediation where affected components process customer data, admin sessions, or Internet-exposed workflows.
