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 RadiusTheme Team (tlp-team) WordPress plugin allows attackers to exploit incorrectly configured access control security levels, potentially enabling unauthorized access to sensitive team management functionality or data without proper authentication or privilege validation.

MitigationUpdate to the latest patched version of the tlp-team plugin when available, and conduct a security review of all access control configurations to ensure proper authorization checks are enforced on sensitive endpoints.

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. Verify tlp-team plugin installation
    Log into WordPress admin and navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins, or check the /wp-content/plugins/tlp-team/ directory via file manager or SSH
    Affected if The tlp-team plugin by RadiusTheme is present and active on the WordPress site
  2. Identify installed plugin version
    In WordPress admin, find the tlp-team plugin entry and note the version number displayed, or read the main plugin file header in /wp-content/plugins/tlp-team/tlp-team.php
    Affected if The installed version is older than the patched version released to address CVE-2026-25026
  3. Inspect plugin access control configuration
    Review the plugin settings in WordPress admin under TLP Team > Team Settings, checking any security level, access permission, or visibility settings that control who can access team management features
    Affected if Access control settings are configured with weak or overly permissive security levels that allow unauthenticated or low-privilege access
  4. Test for unauthorized endpoint access
    Using a web request tool (curl or browser developer tools), send requests to common tlp-team AJAX endpoints (typically /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=tlp_team_*) without valid authentication or with a low-privilege user account
    Affected if Requests succeed and return sensitive team data or management functionality without proper authorization validation
  5. Review capability checks in plugin code
    Examine the main plugin PHP files for capability checks (current_user_can, wp_verify_nonce, etc.) around team management functions, particularly in files handling member listing, addition, or modification
    Affected if No or inadequate capability checks exist before executing sensitive team operations, indicating the missing authorization vulnerability is present

A user is affected if the tlp-team plugin is installed, the installed version predates the patched release for CVE-2026-25026, and the plugin exposes team management functionality without proper authorization verification.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Update to the latest patched version of the tlp-team plugin when available, and conduct a security review of all access control configurations to ensure proper authorization checks are enforced on sensitive endpoints.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Latest available version of the Team plugin (check WordPress plugin repository for current release)

  1. 1. Log in to your WordPress admin dashboard
  2. 2. Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins
  3. 3. Locate the 'Team' plugin by RadiusTheme (tlp-team)
  4. 4. If an update is available, click 'Update Now' to install the latest version
  5. 5. After updating, verify the plugin is functioning correctly on your site
  6. 6. Test the access control functionality to confirm the authorization vulnerability is resolved
Caveat Review plugin settings after update as default configurations may have changed
