TikTok - Security Vulnerability (CVE-2026-92965)

AI enriched 10 days ago (2026-09-27 09:15 UTC)

Technical Summary

The TikTok WordPress plugin before 1.4.2 does not check that a request is authorised before acting on a sign-in code supplied in the URL, so any visitor can make the site redeem a code of their choosing against the advertising platform, using the site's own credentials. It matches that code loosely, so URLs that merely resemble the expected one trigger it too, and the callback runs on every request to the site rather than only on the administrator's sign-in.

Potential Impact

Severity is LOW (CVSS 3.7). Depending on deployment context, affected components may be exposed to unauthorized actions or data integrity risk.

Exploitability Assessment

Exploitability is assessed as Low based on severity and technical exposure profile.

Primary risk drivers: severity and technical exposure profile

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 32/100 (Low, Low) with priority P5 Monitor. Prioritize remediation where affected components process customer data, admin sessions, or Internet-exposed workflows.
