CVE-2026-2371

What is known

The Greenshift – animation and page builder blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 12.8.3. This is due to missing authorization and post status validation in the `gspb_el_reusable_load()` AJAX handler. The handler accepts an arbitrary `post_id` parameter and renders the content of any `wp_block` post without checking `current_user_can('read_post', $post_id)` or verifying the post status. Combined with the nonce being exposed to unauthenticated users on any public page using the `[wp_reusable_render]` shortcode with `ajax="1"`, this makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to retrieve the rendered HTML content of private, draft, or password-protected reusable blocks.

Business impact

Successful exploitation of CVE-2026-2371, a medium vulnerability (CVSS 5.3) affecting the affected product, may affect the confidentiality, integrity or availability of the vulnerable environment. The exact impact depends on the installed version, exposed interfaces and deployment configuration.

Recommended administrator action

Confirm whether the affected product is present and compare installed versions with the vendor advisory and NVD record. Apply the vendor patch or documented mitigation; until remediation is complete, reduce exposure of affected interfaces, review relevant logs and monitor for indicators of exploitation. DataHouse can support version verification, managed patching, network exposure reduction, log review and backup validation for dedicated, cloud and colocated environments.
