CVE-2026-19652: Divi Membership allows anyone to become admin
CVE-2026-19652 · published 16 days ago
Summary
The Divi Membership plugin for WordPress (versions up to 2.2.0) lets a visitor create an account with full administrator rights. An attacker can send a specially crafted request and log in as the site’s admin without needing a valid account. Update the plugin to a newer version or remove it if you cannot upgrade, and verify that no unexpected admin accounts exist.

Original advisory text
Divi Membership <= 2.2.0 - Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation via 'form_id' Parameter
The Divi Membership plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in versions up to, and including, 2.2.0. This is due to the `dmem_form_submit_handler()` function determining the new user's role by iterating all WordPress roles and calling `password_verify()` against an attacker-controlled bcrypt hash supplied in the `form_id` POST parameter, with no validation or whitelist of allowed roles. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register a new account with the administrator role by submitting a locally computed bcrypt hash of `administrator` as `form_id`, and when `auto_login=on` is submitted, be immediately authenticated as that administrator in the same request, resulting in full site takeover. Exploitation requires a WordPress nonce, but that nonce is publicly emitted on any page rendering the Divi Membership registration form and is therefore obtainable by any unauthenticated visitor.
