At a glance

CVE-2026-7456 is a medium-severity Missing Authorization vulnerability in the Udimi Tools WordPress plugin, affecting versions <= 3.2. It carries a CVSS score of 6.5 (reachable over the network; low attack complexity; high integrity impact). Exploitation requires an authenticated account at Subscriber level or above. The issue is fixed in version 3.2.1; sites on affected versions should update now. Disclosed August 2026, reported by Legion Hunter.

Vulnerability Overview

The Udimi Tools plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the `ajax_disconnect()` function in all versions up to, and including, 3.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to delete the plugin's six configuration options — including the API key, connected Udimi user email, and tracking-script payload — effectively disconnecting the site from the configured Udimi account. The companion `ajax_connect()` handler is missing the same checks, allowing the same low-privilege attackers to overwrite those options with an attacker-supplied API key.

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. A successful exploit has high impact on integrity.

CWE-862: Missing Authorization

Udimi Tools <= 3.2 carries this weakness at ajax_disconnect(), and reaching it 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. For Udimi Tools the fix is 3.2.1: builds <= 3.2 are affected, anything from 3.2.1 onward is not.

Remediation

Update to version 3.2.1, or a newer patched version

How WordSec helps

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. None of that substitutes for the fix: Udimi Tools 3.2.1 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
