CVE-2026-7624 Details
Description
The SEO Plugin by Squirrly SEO plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 12.4.16. 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 contributor-level access and above, to invoke privileged state-changing Squirrly cloud API operations, such as revoking the site's Google Search Console and Google Analytics integrations via `api/gsc/revoke` and `api/ga/revoke`, that are otherwise restricted to administrator-level users holding the `sq_manage_settings` capability.
A vulnerability allowing authorization bypass has been identified in the SEO Plugin by Squirrly SEO for WordPress, affecting all versions through 12.4.16. The issue arises because the plugin fails to properly verify user authorization for certain actions. This flaw enables authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher to perform privileged operations that change the state of the Squirrly cloud API. For instance, they can revoke a site's integrations with Google Search Console and Google Analytics, using API endpoints that are normally restricted to administrators with the 'sq_manage_settings' capability.
Users are advised to update the Squirrly SEO plugin to version 12.4.17 or a newer patched version.
