AI Analysis

Impact

The Arcane theme for WordPress contains a missing authorization flaw that allows an attacker to bypass required access checks. This broken access control can enable a non‑privileged user to access restricted areas of a WordPress site, potentially reading, editing, or deleting content that should be protected. The weakness is identified as an authorization failure (CWE-862).

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects Skywarrior Arcane theme versions from the earliest available release up to and including 3.6.6. Any WordPress installation running this theme within that version range is susceptible.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.3 indicates moderate severity. The EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a low probability of exploitation at the present time, and the issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is remote via the website; an attacker can obtain the vulnerability by accessing the site over the network, possibly without authentication, and manipulating requests to trigger the broken authorization logic. Exploiting the weakness would not provide system‑wide compromise but could expose or alter site data, undermining confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected WordPress site.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the Arcane theme to a version newer than 3.6.6, which resolves the broken access control flaw.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, restrict theme activation and usage to trusted administrators only to limit exposure.
  • Temporarily deactivate the Arcane theme and switch to a default WordPress theme until the patch can be applied.
