CVE-2026-61973 · Severity: medium · CVSS 4.3 · Published 2026-07-23

ShopLentor Pro, a popular WordPress plugin used for building WooCommerce online stores, contains a security flaw that allows users with low-level 'Subscriber' accounts to perform unauthorized actions. This could allow an attacker to modify certain site settings or data that should normally be restricted to administrators. While the impact is limited to data integrity rather than full site takeover, it poses a risk to the operational consistency of the online store.
