CVE-2026-14357

DevKit Pro <= 2.3.0 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Arbitrary Theme Installation / Remote Code Execution via 'qqfile' Parameter

Published Sep 2, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 8.8 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
The DevKit Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to, and including, 2.3.0. This is due to a missing capability check and missing nonce validation in the DPDEV_install_themes_func() function registered on the wp_ajax_DPDEV_install_themes action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to install arbitrary theme ZIP packages containing PHP files that are extracted into the web-accessible wp-content/themes/ directory, which may make remote code execution possible.
