CVE-2026-109401 PUBLISHED

WP Mail Logging <= 1.17.0 - Authenticated (Administrator+) Sensitive Information Exposure in LIKE Wildcard in Personal Data Export Email

Assigner: Wordfence
Reserved: 12.10.2026 Published: 16.10.2026 Updated: 16.10.2026

The WP Mail Logging plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.17.0 via the 'email_address' parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to extract complete logged mail rows belonging to other users — including recipient addresses, message subjects, full message bodies, and any URLs contained therein — whose addresses happen to match the wildcard. Exploitation requires an administrator to process a personal-data export request for the attacker's email address via the standard WordPress privacy workflow, and the attacker's address must contain a LIKE wildcard character (such as an underscore) that matches at least one other user's address in the mail log.
