Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

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 TeconceTheme Mayosis Core allows attackers to access functionality without proper authentication or authorization checks due to incorrectly configured access control security levels. This affects Mayosis Core versions up to and including 5.4.7, potentially allowing unauthorized users to perform actions that should be restricted to authenticated users with proper capabilities.

MitigationImplement proper authorization checks (capability checks and nonce verification) on all sensitive functions and AJAX endpoints within Mayosis Core. Review and enforce WordPress capability requirements for all user-facing functionality.

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. Identify if Mayosis Core theme is installed
    Locate the theme folder in wp-content/themes/ and check for mayosis or teconce theme directories. Check theme style.css header for the theme name and version, or query via WordPress admin appearance section.
    Affected if The Mayosis Core theme by Teconce is present in the WordPress installation.
  2. Determine installed theme version
    Open the style.css file in the theme directory and locate the 'Version:' header in the CSS comment block at the top, or check via WordPress admin under Appearance > Themes.
    Affected if The version number is 5.4.7 or lower.
  3. Test for unauthorized endpoint access
    Send direct HTTP requests to common Mayosis Core AJAX endpoints (such as /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=mayosis_...) or any custom Mayosis-specific REST API routes without providing authentication credentials or valid nonces.
    Affected if Sensitive data or privileged actions are returned or executed without requiring authentication or authorization validation.
  4. Verify access control on theme core features
    Inspect the theme core files (typically in includes/ or core/ folders) for functions handling user data, content export, settings modification, or file uploads. Check if these functions include current_user_can() or similar authorization checks before executing sensitive operations.
    Affected if Critical functions lack proper capability checks or role-based access validation.

A user is affected if the Mayosis Core theme version is 5.4.7 or lower AND sensitive theme endpoints or core functionality can be accessed or executed without authentication or proper authorization validation.
