CVE-2026-109386
The Hustle – Email Marketing, Lead Generation, Optins, Popups plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 7.8.14.3. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with custom-level access and above, to overwrite the site's active ESP integration credentials (AWeber, Constant Contact, Infusionsoft, ConvertKit, or HubSpot API keys) with attacker-controlled values — diverting all subsequent Hustle form lead submissions to the attacker's ESP tenant — and, for HubSpot, irreversibly delete the operator's OAuth token, OAuth referer, and OAuth current-page option rows. This requires the attacker to hold the plugin-granted hustlecreate capability (e.g., an Editor delegated hustlecreate but not hustleeditintegrations via Hustle's Permissions tab), which allows them to load a Hustle module wizard page and obtain the hustleprovideraction nonce needed to reach the vulnerable handlers.
