CVE-2026-82305, 11 Sep 2026
The YITH WooCommerce Wishlist WordPress plugin before 4.18.1 does not verify that a user is authorised to rename a given wishlist, allowing unauthenticated users to rename any wishlist on the site. CVE record
CVE-2026-4432, 10 Apr 2026
The YITH WooCommerce Wishlist WordPress plugin before 4.13.0 does not properly validate wishlist ownership in the save_title() AJAX handler before allowing wishlist renaming operations. The function only checks for a valid nonce, which is publicly exposed in the page source of the /wishlist/ page, making it possible for unauthenticated attackers to rename any wishlist belonging to any user on the site. CVE record
CVE-2025-12777, 19 Nov 2025
The YITH WooCommerce Wishlist plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 4.10.0. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform actions on the REST API /wp-json/yith/wishlist/v1/lists endpoint (which uses permission_callback => '__return_true') and the AJAX delete_item handler (which only checks nonce validity without verifying object-level authorization). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to disclose wishlist tokens for any user and subsequently delete wishlist items by chaining the REST API authorization bypass with the exposed delete_item nonce on shared wishlist pages and the AJAX handler's missing object-level authorization check. CVE record
CVE-2025-12427, 19 Nov 2025
The YITH WooCommerce Wishlist plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 4.10.0 via the REST API endpoint and AJAX handler due to missing validation on user-controlled keys. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to discover any user's wishlist token ID, and subsequently rename the victim's wishlist without authorization (integrity impact). This can be exploited to target multi-user stores for defacement, social engineering attacks, mass tampering, and profiling at scale. CVE record
CVE-2025-5238, 14 Jun 2025
The YITH WooCommerce Wishlist plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘id’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.5.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. CVE record
CVE-2019-16251, 31 Oct 2019
plugin-fw/lib/yit-plugin-panel-wc.php in the YIT Plugin Framework through 3.3.8 for WordPress allows authenticated options changes. CVE record

What to do if you run YITH WooCommerce Wishlist

If you run YITH WooCommerce Wishlist, open WordPress and check the installed version in Plugins. Compare it with the affected versions in the vulnerability record. If a fixed version is available, take a current backup and update to that version or the latest supported release.

If no fixed version exists, consider disabling and removing the plugin or replacing it with a maintained alternative. After dealing with the affected software, check administrator users, unexpected file changes, redirects, unfamiliar pages and security logs for signs that the site may already have been altered.
