# CVE-2026-6506: InfusedWoo Pro \<= 5.1.2 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Missing Authorization to Privilege Escalation via Arbitrary User Meta Update

- Severity: CVSS 8.8 (High), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=total
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2026-05-14 · Updated: 2026-05-14

## Affected

- Infused Addons InfusedWoo Pro: through 5.1.2

## Description

The InfusedWoo Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.2. This is due to the infusedwoo_gdpr_upddata() function missing authorization and capability checks, as well as lacking restrictions on which user meta keys can be updated. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to update their own wp_capabilities user meta to grant themselves Administrator role privileges.
