Executive Summary

CVE-2026-24616 is a Broken Access Control vulnerability in the WordPress WP Popups Plugin (versions up to 2.2.0.3). It occurs due to missing authorization, authentication, or nonce token checks in certain plugin functions, which may allow users with Contributor or Developer privileges to perform actions meant for higher-privileged roles. [1]

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability could allow users with lower privileges (Contributor or Developer) to execute actions reserved for higher-privileged users, potentially leading to unauthorized changes or access within the WordPress site. However, the impact is considered low priority and exploitation is unlikely in practice. [1]

Mitigation Strategies

Since no official fix or patched version is currently available for this vulnerability, immediate mitigation steps include restricting user roles to prevent unprivileged users (such as Contributors or Developers) from performing higher-privileged actions within the WP Popups plugin. Additionally, consider using Patchstack's mitigation services to help protect your system against exploitation of this vulnerability. [1]
