CVE-2026-11366 Details
Description
The MonsterInsights WordPress plugin before 11.1.0 does not correctly validate the signature on one of its unauthenticated AJAX actions: when the MonsterInsights WordPress plugin before 11.1.0 is not connected to Google Analytics the HMAC signing key is empty, which lets unauthenticated attackers forge a valid signature and overwrite a MonsterInsights WordPress plugin before 11.1.0 configuration value, disrupting the MonsterInsights WordPress plugin before 11.1.0's server-side analytics in Manual GA4 mode.
A vulnerability exists in the MonsterInsights WordPress plugin in versions prior to 11.1.0, where the plugin fails to properly validate the signature on an unauthenticated AJAX action. When the plugin is not connected to Google Analytics, the HMAC signing key is empty. This allows unauthenticated attackers to forge a valid signature and overwrite a plugin configuration value, disrupting the plugin's server-side analytics in Manual GA4 mode.
Users are advised to update the MonsterInsights WordPress plugin to version 11.1.0 or later.
