CVE-2026-18317: Foxtool All-in-One plugin lets logged‑in users change settings
CVE-2026-18317 · published 1 month ago
Summary
The Foxtool All-in-One plugin for WordPress does not properly check who is allowed to change its configuration. As a result, anyone with a basic user account can alter settings, such as turning on SVG image uploads, which could be used to embed malicious code. Update the plugin to the latest version or disable the vulnerable features until you can apply the update.

Original advisory text
Foxtool All-in-One: Contact chat button, Custom login, Media optimize images <= 2.5.3 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Arbitrary Plugin Settings Modification via 'option_key' Parameter of toggle_watermark AJAX Action
The Foxtool All-in-One: Contact chat button, Custom login, Media optimize images plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 2.5.3. 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 subscriber-level access and above, to modify arbitrary subkeys of the foxtool_settings option, including enabling site-wide SVG uploads by toggling the media-up3 key, which can facilitate stored cross-site scripting via malicious SVG files.
