CVE-2026-89406: Modula Image Gallery unauthorized disclosure of private gallery content

CVE-2026-89406 · Severity: high · CVSS 7.5 · Published 2026-09-25

The Modula Image Gallery plugin for WordPress fails to verify access permissions when displaying gallery metadata, allowing unauthenticated attackers to discover private galleries and retrieve image metadata such as titles, descriptions, and URLs. An attacker can then download the original image files without authorization, exposing confidential photos stored in private galleries to unauthorized access.

Technical details

The vulnerability exists in the Modula_Meta::add_metas() function, which hooks to wp_head and retrieves gallery posts via get_post($_GET['modula_gallery_id']) without checking post_status or user capabilities. A logic bug in the input validation (testing an empty string literal instead of the GET parameter) bypasses the guard, and no is_user_logged_in() or current_user_can() check is performed. This allows unauthenticated enumeration of private modula-gallery posts and recovery of image metadata via Open Graph/Twitter meta tags, enabling direct download of private image files.
