This is exploitable by any user holding the plugin-defined import_contacts capability, which is granted by default to the plugin's custom Sales Representative role.","categories":["Unclassified"],"product":"Groundhogg — CRM, Newsletters, and Marketing Automation","vendor":"trainingbusinesspros","ecosystem":null,"affected_ranges":[{"source":"CVE List","source_url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-109221","source_modified_at":"2026-10-16T17:07:01.282Z","fetched_at":"2026-10-23T18:48:36.087640Z","product":"Groundhogg — CRM, Newsletters, and Marketing Automation","vendor":"trainingbusinesspros","versions":[{"version":"0","status":"affected","lessThanOrEqual":"4.9.3","versionType":"semver"}],"defaultStatus":"unaffected"}],"fixed_versions":[],"cvss":8.1,"severity":"High","kev":{"listed":false},"epss":{"probability":0.0079,"percentile":0.5581,"score_date":"2026-10-23"},"published_at":"2026-10-16T04:27:05.579Z","modified_at":"2026-10-16T17:07:01.282Z","provenance":[{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-109221","fetched_at":"2026-10-23T18:48:36.087640Z","source_modified_at":"2026-10-16T17:07:01.282Z"},{"source":"EPSS","url":"https://api.first.org/data/v1/epss?cve=CVE-2026-109221","fetched_at":"2026-10-23T18:42:43.628194Z","source_modified_at":"2026-10-23"}],"sources":["CVE List","EPSS"],"references":[{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/fb5100ac-cfe6-4e91-9349-6e8efa850147?source=cve"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/groundhogg/tags/4.9.3/includes/classes/traits/file-box.php#L94"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/groundhogg/tags/4.9.3/includes/classes/traits/file-box.php#L85"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/groundhogg/tags/4.9.3/includes/utils/files.php#L323"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/groundhogg/tags/4.9.3/includes/functions.php#L2872"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/groundhogg/tags/4.9.3/includes/functions.php#L8045"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/groundhogg/tags/4.9.3/includes/background/import-contacts.php#L200"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/groundhogg/tags/4.9.3/admin/tools/tools-page.php#L575"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/groundhogg/tags/4.9.3/admin/tools/tools-page.php#L602"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/groundhogg/tags/4.9.3/includes/main-roles.php#L583"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://github.com/groundhoggwp/groundhogg/commit/e319e4a849bfbb07cccfbac8558ad6bf07a7fdc0"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3744461/groundhogg/trunk/includes/classes/traits/file-box.php"}],"locations":[],"motoko_assessment":{"status":"requires_architecture_review","automatic_remediation":false},"cve_state":"PUBLISHED","cvss_source":"CVE List","ssvc":{"exploitation":"none","automatable":"no","technical_impact":"partial","assessed_at":"2026-10-16T16:31:58.151047Z"},"classification":{"method":"product-first software-layer rules","rules_version":"2.1","matched_on":null,"confidence":"unknown","reviewed":false},"change_timestamp":"2026-10-16T17:07:01.282Z","content_hash":"eec6a7c2e8ef4eb9b53e1b46a47e13d61f45139b23cc56f9701c8ec3da7c1065"}}
