CVE-2026-9289 Details
Description
The WordLift – AI powered SEO – Schema plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 3.54.10 via the JSON-LD REST API endpoints. This is due to the plugin registering the /wordlift/v1/jsonld/ routes (jsonld/{id}, jsonld/http/{item_id}, jsonld/post-meta/{meta_key}, jsonld/meta/{meta_key}, and jsonld/{post_type}/{post_name}) with a permission_callback of '__return_true' and the downstream converter retrieving the post via get_post() without verifying the post status or the requesting user's capabilities. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read the title, content/description, author, publication and modification dates, word count, comment count, and other metadata of private, draft, and pending posts by enumerating post IDs, bypassing WordPress core access controls.
A vulnerability allowing sensitive information exposure exists in the WordLift - AI powered SEO - Schema plugin for WordPress, in all versions through 3.54.10. The issue arises in the JSON-LD REST API endpoints, where the plugin registers routes with a permission callback that allows unauthenticated access. The downstream converter retrieves posts without verifying their status or the user's capabilities, enabling unauthenticated attackers to access metadata from private, draft, and pending posts by enumerating post IDs. This bypasses WordPress core access controls.
Users are advised to update the WordLift plugin to version 3.54.14 or a newer patched version.
