Overview

CVE-2026-75797 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 26, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.7 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.7, rated HIGH. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

The AI Engine WordPress plugin before 3.7.2 does not confine a caller-supplied URL when mapping it to a local filesystem path before reading the file and forwarding its contents to an external service, allowing users with a subscriber-level account to read arbitrary files from the server and exfiltrate them off-host. Reaching the issue at subscriber level requires a non-default public API feature to be enabled; otherwise the same issue is reachable by an administrator, which on multisite allows a non-super subsite administrator to read the network-shared configuration and its secrets.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
