CVE-2026-107774Dokan authentication bypass by spoofing
CVE-2026-107774 is a authentication bypass by spoofing in Dokan, rated medium (5.3 on CVSS 3.1).
Why this priority: Medium severity, with no exploitation signal.
Published · Updated · NVD status: Deferred
What it is
Identity is trusted from something an attacker can fake, such as an address or header.
How it is reached
An attacker can exploit it over the network, without an account, and nobody has to click anything.
What an attacker gains
The direct impact is limited: partial access to data or a partial outage. In practice, this kind of flaw lets an attacker act as a signed-in user, or an administrator, without valid credentials.
Is it being exploited?
There is no public report of exploitation yet. It can be exploited automatically, at scale. EPSS estimates a 0.18% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 8% of scored CVEs.
What to do
- Upgrade Dokan to 5.3.3 or later.
- Until it is patched, keep it off the internet or behind a VPN, allowlist or authenticating proxy.
Description from NVD
The Dokan: AI Powered WooCommerce Multivendor Marketplace Solution WordPress plugin before 5.3.3 does not use a trusted site-owned sender address when relaying its store contact form, instead placing the unauthenticated submitter's supplied address directly in the message's From header rather than a Reply-To, allowing unauthenticated attackers to make the site email its own vendors with the sender spoofed to an address at the site's own domain (such as its administrator), aligned with the domain's own SPF/DKIM.
What this means for your architecture.
A CVE names a product. Whether it matters depends on where that product sits in your systems: what reaches it, which trust boundary it guards and what it can reach once compromised. Veriom maps your components, their relationships and your trust boundaries from your code, cloud and delivery evidence, so you can see where a component like this sits. The radar itself does not look at your systems.
Components it touches
- WordPress sites and their plugins. Plugins run inside the site with its database access, and many sites are public.
- Sign-in, session and token handling. The flaw sits between anonymous callers and authenticated sessions.
- Identity providers and SSO. The flaw sits between anonymous callers and authenticated sessions.
Trust boundaries in play
- Internet-facing entry points. No account is needed. Any instance reachable from outside your perimeter, through a load balancer, gateway, VPN or exposed admin port, is in scope.
- Between anonymous callers and authenticated sessions. An attacker who crosses it can act as a signed-in user, or an administrator, without valid credentials.
Questions to answer about your own systems
- Where does Dokan run in your systems, and at which version?
- Which of those instances can be reached from the internet or partner networks?
- What can it reach once compromised: which data stores, secrets and services?
