CVE-2026-5753 - All In One Wp Migration Unlimited Extension Plugin

CVE-2026-5753

The All-in-One WP Migration Unlimited Extension plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to, and including, 2.83. This is due to the 'Ai1wmve_Schedules_Controller::save' handler for 'admin_post_ai1wm_schedule_event_save' not verifying user capabilities before saving schedule data. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to create scheduled export jobs and send backup notifications to attacker-controlled email addresses. Because such notifications include the random backup filename, full site backups can subsequently be downloaded from the target site, resulting in sensitive information exposure.

Potential Impact

Severity is MEDIUM (CVSS 6.5). 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 70/100 (Elevated, High) with priority P3 Priority. Prioritize remediation where affected components process customer data, admin sessions, or Internet-exposed workflows.
