WordPress · Wp User Frontend · CVE-2026-12406
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
User Frontend: AI Powered Frontend Posting, User Directory, Profile, Membership & User Registration versions prior to 4.3.8
**Description**
An authorization bypass exists because the plugin fails to properly verify if a user is authorized to perform specific actions. Unauthenticated attackers can delete arbitrary media attachments where the `post author` is 0, including guest and registration-form uploads, by utilizing the `wpuf file del` AJAX action. This is possible on sites where a WPUF shortcode is rendered on a front-end page, as the `wpuf nonce` value is localized into publicly accessible JavaScript objects (`wpuf upload` and `wpuf frontend`), bypassing the access control mechanism.
**Recommendations**
Update User Frontend: AI Powered Frontend Posting, User Directory, Profile, Membership & User Registration to version 4.3.8 or later.
