CriticalCVE-2026-8181

Burst Statistics 3.4.0 - 3.4.1.1 - Authentication Bypass to Admin Account Takeover

Burst Statistics – Simple WordPress Analytics (Google Analytics Alternative): Currently marked unpatched

Affected versions: 3.4.0-3.4.1.1

Vulnerability type: CWE-287 Improper Authentication

Affected software, patched versions and attribution

The Burst Statistics – Privacy-Friendly WordPress Analytics (Google Analytics Alternative) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in versions 3.4.0 to 3.4.1.1. This is due to incorrect return-value handling in the `is_mainwp_authenticated()` function when validating application passwords from the Authorization header. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers, with knowledge of an administrator username, to impersonate that administrator for the duration of the request by supplying any random Basic Authentication password achieving privilege escalation.

Burst Statistics – Privacy-Friendly Analytics for WordPress <= 1.5.6.1 - Authenticated(Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via burst_total_pageviews_count

Burst Statistics – Simple WordPress Analytics (Google Analytics Alternative): Currently marked unpatched

Affected versions: *-1.5.6.1

Vulnerability type: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

Affected software, patched versions and attribution

The Burst Statistics – Privacy-Friendly Analytics for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'burst_total_pageviews_count' custom meta field in all versions up to, and including, 1.5.6.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes.

Burst Statistics Really Simple Plugins <= 1.5.3 - Authenticated (Editor+) SQL Injection

Burst Statistics – Simple WordPress Analytics (Google Analytics Alternative): Currently marked unpatched

Affected versions: *-1.5.3

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

Affected software, patched versions and attribution

The Burst Statistics – Privacy-Friendly Analytics for WordPress plugin, version 1.5.3, is vulnerable to Post-Authenticated SQL Injection via multiple JSON parameters in the /wp-json/burst/v1/data/compare endpoint. Affected parameters include 'browser', 'device', 'page_id', 'page_url', 'platform', and 'referrer'. This vulnerability arises due to insufficient escaping of user-supplied parameters and the lack of adequate preparation in SQL queries. As a result, authenticated attackers with editor access or higher can append additional SQL queries into existing ones, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive information from the database.
