CVE-2026-107787 is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. No public exploit code is tracked. It affects CatFolders; fixed in 2.5.7.

## Summary

The CatFolders WordPress plugin lacks authorization checks on a folder maintenance action, so a logged-in user with a subscriber-level account or higher can reset ownership of every media folder and disable the plugin's user restriction setting. The attacker needs only that low-privilege account to trigger the action.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- Unknown CatFolders: fixed in 2.5.7

## Description

The CatFolders WordPress plugin before 2.5.7 does not have authorisation checks on a folder maintenance action, allowing users with a role as low as subscriber to reset the per-user ownership of every media folder and disable the CatFolders WordPress plugin before 2.5.7's user restriction setting.
