- Severity: CVSS 8.0 (High), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=total

- Published: 2026-07-10 · Updated: 2026-07-10

## Affected

- joeyoungblood WP Business Intelligence Lite: through 3.2.0

## Description

The WP Business Intelligence Lite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.0. 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 modify stored SQL queries, which can lead to privilege escalation via arbitrary SQL execution when the modified query is viewed by an administrator.
