High CVSS 7.5

CVE-2026-16603

NVD analysis in progress

The Passster WordPress plugin before 4.3.6 does not enforce its category-based content protection on the WordPress REST API, allowing unauthenticated users to read the full content, title, and excerpt of category-locked posts through the core REST API.

What this means

Exposure
Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim.
Impact
An attacker can read sensitive data.
Weakness
The application reveals information an unauthorised user should not see.
Likelihood
Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.

What to doFold into the next patch cycle. Start with the instances exposed to the internet.
