CVE-2025-11749

9.8
CRITICAL · CVSS 3.1 · EPSS 74.8% (pctl 99)

Patch early

EPSS 74.8% — above the 10% action threshold.

Description

The AI Engine plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.3 via the /mcp/v1/ REST API endpoint that exposes the 'Bearer Token' value when 'No-Auth URL' is enabled. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to extract the bearer token, which can be used to gain access to a valid session and perform many actions like creating a new administrator account, leading to privilege escalation.
