CVE-2026-3568 — MStore API <= 4.18.3 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Insecure Direct Object Reference to Arbitrary User Meta Update

The MStore API plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 4.18.3. This is due to the update_user_profile() function in controllers/flutter-user.php processing the 'meta_data' JSON parameter without any allowlist, blocklist, or validation of meta keys. The function reads raw JSON from php://input (line 1012), decodes it (line 1013), authenticates the user via cookie validation (line 1015), and then directly iterates over the user-supplied meta_data array passing arbitrary keys and values to update_user_meta() (line 1080) with no sanitization or restrictions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify arbitrary user meta fields on their own accounts, including sensitive fields like wp_user_level (to escalate to administrator-level legacy checks), plugin-specific authorization flags (e.g., _wpuf_user_active, aiowps_account_status), and billing/profile fields with unsanitized values (potentially enabling Stored XSS in admin contexts). Note that wp_capabilities cannot be directly exploited this way because it requires a serialized array value, but wp_user_level (a simple integer) and numerous plugin-specific meta keys are exploitable.

Who exploits it and how urgent it is

A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.

No exploitation signal in the sources consulted so far.
How the score was calculated
  • EPSS 0.4% (30-day exploitation probability)+4
  • Technical severity (medium)+3

The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).

Triage

Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.

Remediation

Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.

No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.

First 24 hours

Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.

  1. Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Inspireui MStore API – Create Native Android & iOS Apps On The Cloud).
  2. No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
  3. Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (access control), errors and authentication anomalies.

What should defenders know first?

CVE-2026-3568 is "MStore API <= 4.18.3 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Insecure Direct Object Reference to Arbitrary User Meta Update", rated Medium. It affects MStore API – Create Native Android & iOS Apps On The Cloud (Inspireui); versions are in the scope table. It is not in CISA KEV, which does not rule out exploitation. CVSS 4.3 describes technical severity. EPSS 0.36% estimates the probability of exploitation in 30 days; neither replaces your asset context. First verify whether exposed or business-critical assets run the affected versions, apply vendor fixes or mitigations, and preserve logs for review.
