CVE-2026-19775OpenStation <= 1.1.7 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Sensitive Information Disclosure via AI Copilot Search Endpoint
Medium 4.3
In plain English
A medium-severity missing authorization in OpenStation: Desktop Windows, Dock & Virtual Desktops for WP Admin from allterraindeveloper. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.2% (higher than 14% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
The OpenStation — Desktop Windows, Dock & Virtual Desktops for WP Admin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.7. 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 custom-level access and above, to read the title, status, date, permalink, and a 300-character content excerpt of any private, draft, pending, or future post, as well as the content and AI-moderation verdicts of unapproved and spam comments. Any authenticated user with the 'read' capability can self-enable the required AI feature by visiting the /openstation/ portal and toggling their own ai.enabled setting via the POST /desktop-mode/v1/os-settings endpoint, removing any practical barrier to exploitation.
