NVD · unedited
Missing Authorization vulnerability in CodeRevolution Aiomatic.This issue affects Aiomatic: from n/a through 1.9.3.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

Missing Authorization vulnerability in the CodeRevolution Aiomatic WordPress plugin (versions through 1.9.3) allows unauthorized users to access functionality that should require higher privileges. This type of vulnerability typically enables privilege escalation or unauthorized actions within the WordPress environment.

MitigationUpdate Aiomatic to the latest patched version once available, and implement proper capability checks and nonce verification on all sensitive AJAX actions and admin functions.

Verify against the referenced sources before acting — the references below are authoritative for this CVE, this summary is not.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm Aiomatic plugin is installed
    Navigate to WordPress admin dashboard > Plugins and verify CodeRevolution Aiomatic appears in the installed plugins list
    Affected if Plugin is installed and active
  2. Check installed Aiomatic version
    In Plugins list, click on Aiomatic to view the version number, or check the plugin header in /wp-content/plugins/aiomatic-extension/ directory
    Affected if Version is 1.9.3 or lower (anything below 1.9.4)
  3. Identify accessible AJAX actions
    Review the plugin files for AJAX action registrations (search for 'add_action.*wp_ajax' and 'add_action.*wp_ajax_nopriv' in plugin PHP files)
    Affected if Sensitive AJAX actions are registered without capability checks or with only 'nopriv' access
  4. Test unauthorized access to admin functions
    Attempt to access plugin admin pages or functions with a low-privilege user account (subscriber or contributor role) that should not have access
    Affected if Low-privilege users can access functionality intended for administrators
  5. Verify capability enforcement on sensitive operations
    Inspect plugin source code for current_user_can() calls before sensitive operations, AJAX handlers, and admin actions
    Affected if Missing or inadequate capability checks are present before sensitive operations

If Aiomatic version is below 1.9.4 and the plugin exposes sensitive functionality without proper capability verification, the environment is affected by this authorization bypass.

Interim mitigation

Update Aiomatic to the latest patched version once available, and implement proper capability checks and nonce verification on all sensitive AJAX actions and admin functions.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Aiomatic version 1.9.4 or later

  1. 1. Create a full backup of the WordPress site and database before updating.
  2. 2. Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins in the WordPress admin dashboard.
