CVE-2026-3568

CVE-2026-3568 — MStore API <= 4.18.3 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Insecure Direct Object Reference to Arbitrary User Meta Update

The MStore API plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 4.18.3. This is due to the update_user_profile() function in controllers/flutter-user.php processing the 'meta_data' JSON parameter without any allowlist, blocklist, or validation of meta keys. The function reads raw JSON from php://input (line 1012), decodes it (line 1013), authenticates the user via cookie validation (line 1015), and then directly iterates over the user-supplied meta_data array passing arbitrary keys and values to update_user_meta() (line 1080) with no sanitization or restrictions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify arbitrary user meta fields on their own accounts, including sensitive fields like wp_user_level (to escalate to administrator-level legacy checks), plugin-specific…
