CVE-2026-27351

Vulnerability

A missing authorization vulnerability exists in the Sekander Badsha Crew HRM plugin for WordPress. This issue affects versions from n/a through 1.2.2. The vulnerability stems from incorrectly configured access control, specifically a missing authorization check in a function that allows unprivileged users to execute higher-privileged actions [1].

Exploitation

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by leveraging the missing authorization check. This allows an unprivileged user to execute certain higher-privileged actions without proper authentication or authorization [1]. No specific user interaction or network position requirements are detailed in the available references.

Impact

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an unprivileged user to perform actions typically reserved for higher-privileged users. The available references suggest this issue has a low severity impact and is unlikely to be exploited, but the exact CIA outcome is not specified [1].

Mitigation

The vulnerability is resolved in Crew HRM version 1.2.3 and later. Users are advised to update to version 1.2.3 or a later version to mitigate the risk. If an immediate update is not possible, users should seek assistance from their hosting provider or web developer [1].
