Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects Unknown AI Copilot. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

The AI Copilot WordPress plugin before 1.5.4 does not bind OAuth access tokens to a WordPress user, and accepts any valid token as an administrator session, allowing unauthenticated attackers who complete the public OAuth flow to execute privileged MCP tools as an administrator, including arbitrary user creation and role escalation.
