Home page URL: Security reports for Kubio AI Page Builder
Application: Kubio AI Page Builder
Date: Jan 18, 2025

CVE, Research URL: CVE-2025-2294
Home page URL: Security reports for Kubio AI Page Builder
Application: Kubio AI Page Builder
Date: Mar 28, 2025
Research Description: The Kubio AI Page Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 2.5.1 via thekubio_hybrid_theme_load_template function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to include and execute arbitrary files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files.

Apr 20, 2026

CVE, Research URL: CVE-2026-5427
Home page URL: Security reports for Kubio AI Page Builder
Application: Kubio AI Page Builder
Date: Apr 17, 2026
Research Description: The Kubio plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in versions up to and including 2.7.2. This is due to insufficient capability checks in the kubio_rest_pre_insert_import_assets() function, which is hooked to the rest_pre_insert_{post_type} filter for posts, pages, templates, and template parts. When a post is created or updated via the REST API, Kubio parses block attributes looking for URLs in the 'kubio' attribute namespace and automatically imports them via importRemoteFile() without verifying the user has the upload_files capability. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access and above to bypass WordPress's normal media upload restrictions and upload files fetched from external URLs to the media library, creating attachment posts in the database.
Affected versions: max 2.7.3.
Status: vulnerable

Apr 25, 2026

CVE, Research URL: CVE-2025-8487
Home page URL: Security reports for Kubio AI Page Builder
Application: Kubio AI Page Builder
Date: Sep 19, 2025
Research Description: The Kubio AI Page Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized plugin installation due to a missing capability check on the kubio-image-hub-install-plugin AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 2.6.3. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to install the Image Hub plugin.
Affected versions: max 2.6.5.
Status: vulnerable

Aug 18, 2026

CVE, Research URL: CVE-2026-16779
Home page URL: Security reports for Kubio AI Page Builder
Application: Kubio AI Page Builder
Date: Aug 16, 2026
Research Description: The Kubio AI Page Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.5. 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 contributor-level access and above, to overwrite front-page configuration options (show_on_front, page_on_front, and page_for_posts), rewrite primary navigation menu items, replace template parts, and overwrite the Kubio global-data post. Although a nonce check via check_ajax_referer() is present, the nonce is unconditionally emitted into window.kubioUtilsData for every user who can load the block editor, making it harvestable by any Contributor and therefore an ineffective authorization barrier.
Affected versions: max 2.8.6.
Status: vulnerable
