CVE-2025-13309 is a medium-severity Missing Authorization vulnerability in the Accessiy by CodeConfig WordPress plugin, affecting versions <= 1.0.2. It carries a CVSS score of 4.3 (reachable over the network; low attack complexity). Exploitation requires an authenticated account at Subscriber level or above.

Vulnerability Overview

The Accessiy By CodeConfig Accessibility – Easy One-Click Accessibility Toolbar That Truly Matters plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in versions up to, and including, 1.0.2. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access and above to modify the plugin’s global accessibility settings.

Technical Analysis

The vector marks this flaw as remotely reachable over the network, with low attack complexity — no special timing or configuration is needed, and no interaction from a victim user.

CWE-862: Missing Authorization

Reaching this weakness in Accessiy by CodeConfig <= 1.0.2 takes an account at Subscriber level or above. A missing authorization check means a function is reachable by anyone who can reach the endpoint, because the code never asks whether the caller is allowed to perform the action.

Any user who can reach the endpoint gets to run an action reserved for higher-privileged roles, from reading protected data to changing settings or content. No fixed build of this plugin is recorded for Accessiy by CodeConfig yet, so installs running <= 1.0.2 stay exposed until the vendor ships one.

Remediation

No known patch available. Please review the vulnerability's details in depth and employ mitigations based on your organization's risk tolerance. It may be best to uninstall the affected software and find a replacement.

How does WordSec protect against this?

Because it turns on account access, WordSec's login security is the relevant layer: role-based two-factor, captcha and brute-force limits raise the cost of getting the account this needs. No patched version is recorded yet, which is the case where a filtering layer matters most, because there is nothing to update to.
