At a glance

CVE-2026-11794 is a high-severity Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in the Advanced Form Integration WordPress plugin, affecting versions <= 2.1.0. It carries a CVSS score of 8.1 (reachable over the network; high confidentiality, integrity, availability impact). Exploitation requires no authentication. The issue is fixed in version 2.1.1; sites on affected versions should update now. Disclosed June 2026, reported by Khaled Alenazi.

Vulnerability Overview

The Advanced Form Integration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in versions up to, and including, 2.1.0. This is due to insufficient restriction on the capabilities a user may grant themselves. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to elevate their privileges beyond those intended for their role in specific non standard configuration environments.

Technical Analysis

The vector marks this flaw as remotely reachable over the network, and no privileges on the target site, and no interaction from a victim user. A successful exploit has high impact on confidentiality, integrity, availability — full site compromise territory.

CWE-269: Improper Privilege Management

Reaching this weakness in Advanced Form Integration <= 2.1.0 takes no account at all. Improper privilege management means the code lets an account end up with capabilities its role should not have.

It converts a low-privileged account into an administrative one, which makes every other restriction on the site irrelevant. For Advanced Form Integration the fix is 2.1.1: builds <= 2.1.0 are affected, anything from 2.1.1 onward is not.

Remediation

Update to version 2.1.1, or a newer patched version

How does WordSec protect against this?

This one needs no account at all, which puts it outside what login hardening can reach; WordSec's login security narrows the account-level paths around it, and the firewall is what inspects the request itself. None of that substitutes for the fix: Advanced Form Integration 2.1.1 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
