HighCVE-2026-15988

AI Engine <= 3.6.5 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to Privilege Escalation via REQUEST_URI Substring Match

Affected versions: *-3.6.5

Vulnerability type: CWE-352 Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)

Affected software, patched versions and attribution

The AI Engine – The Chatbot, AI Framework & MCP for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.5 This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the reauth_for_authorize function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to create new administrator accounts with attacker-supplied credentials via a CSRF-based REST authentication bypass, granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link. This bypass can be combined with WordPress's ?_method=POST method-override support to convert a top-navigation GET request into an authenticated POST to the REST users endpoint, requiring no existing account on the attacker's part.

Vulnerability type: CWE-269 Improper Privilege Management

Affected software, patched versions and attribution

The AI Engine – The Chatbot, AI Framework & MCP for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in version 3.4.9. This is due to missing WordPress capability enforcement in the MCP OAuth bearer-token authorization path, where any valid OAuth token causes MCP access to be granted without verifying administrator privileges. This makes it possible for authenticated (Subscriber+) attackers to invoke admin-level MCP tools and escalate privileges to Administrator.

AI Engine <= 3.1.8 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) PHP Object Injection via PHAR Deserialization

Affected versions: *-3.1.8

Vulnerability type: CWE-502 Deserialization of Untrusted Data

Affected software, patched versions and attribution

The AI Engine plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection via PHAR Deserialization in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.8 via deserialization of untrusted input in the 'rest_simpleTranscribeAudio' and 'rest_simpleVisionQuery' functions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to inject a PHP Object. No known POP chain is present in the vulnerable software, which means this vulnerability has no impact unless another plugin or theme containing a POP chain is installed on the site. If a POP chain is present via an additional plugin or theme installed on the target system, it may allow the attacker to perform actions like delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute code depending on the POP chain present.

Affected software, patched versions and attribution

The AI Engine plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to open redirect in version 2.8.4. This is due to an insecure OAuth implementation, as the 'redirect_uri' parameter is missing validation during the authorization flow. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to intercept the authorization code and obtain an access token by redirecting the user to an attacker-controlled URI. Note: OAuth is disabled, the 'Meow_MWAI_Labs_OAuth' class is not loaded in the plugin in the patched version 2.8.5.

AI Engine 2.8.0 - 2.8.3 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Insufficient Authorization to Privilege Escalation via MCP

Affected versions: 2.8.0-2.8.3

Vulnerability type: CWE-863 Incorrect Authorization

Affected software, patched versions and attribution

The AI Engine plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data and loss of data due to a missing capability check on the 'Meow_MWAI_Labs_MCP::can_access_mcp' function in versions 2.8.0 to 2.8.3. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to have full access to the MCP and run various commands like 'wp_create_user', 'wp_update_user' and 'wp_update_option', which can be used for privilege escalation, and 'wp_update_post', 'wp_delete_post', 'wp_update_comment' and 'wp_delete_comment', which can be used to edit and delete posts and comments.

AI Engine <= 2.6.3 - Authenticated (Admin+) SQL Injection

Affected versions: *-2.6.3

Vulnerability type: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')

Affected software, patched versions and attribution

The AI Engine plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'value' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.6.3 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

AI Engine <= 2.5.0 - Authenticated (Admin+) Remote Code Execution

Affected versions: *-2.5.0

Vulnerability type: CWE-94 Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')

Affected software, patched versions and attribution

The AI Engine plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 2.5.0 via the /wp-json/mwai/v1/settings/update REST API endpoint. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a log path file extension allowing a user to set the log extension as .php making the file executable. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to execute code on the server.
