Publication date: 2026-08-22

Last updated on: 2026-08-22

Assigner: Wordfence

Description
The AutomatorWP – Automator plugin for no-code automations, webhooks & custom integrations in WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 5.8.4. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to retrieve all ConvertKit form data configured by the site's manager account, exposing integration details intended to be restricted to plugin managers. The required nonce is localized on every admin page load, making it accessible to any authenticated user who can reach /wp-admin.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is an authorization bypass in the AutomatorWP plugin for WordPress. It allows authenticated users with subscriber-level access or higher to retrieve ConvertKit form data that should only be accessible to plugin managers. The issue occurs because the plugin fails to properly verify user authorization before performing actions.

Detection Guidance

Check WordPress admin logs for unauthorized access to ConvertKit form data or unusual activity from subscriber-level accounts. Review plugin files for the AutomatorWP plugin version 5.8.4 or lower.

Impact Analysis

If you use the AutomatorWP plugin, attackers with basic access could steal your ConvertKit form integration details. This exposes sensitive configuration data intended only for administrators, potentially leading to misuse of your marketing or automation tools.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive data, such as ConvertKit form integration details, which may include personal or confidential information. This could violate GDPR if personal data is exposed without proper authorization, or HIPAA if protected health information is involved. Unauthorized data exposure risks non-compliance with data protection regulations.

Mitigation Strategies

Update the AutomatorWP plugin to the latest version immediately. Remove subscriber-level access for users who do not require it. Monitor for any unauthorized data access or changes.
