WPMobile.App – Android and iOS App Builder: Account takeover through exposed password-reset links
The WPMobile.App – Android and iOS App Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 11.82 This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to exfiltrate password-reset URLs for arbitrary users, including administrators, mirrored into the push queue by the mail-to-push feature, and use those URLs to take over the targeted accounts. This exploit chain requires the plugin's mail-to-push feature (wpmobile_auto_mail=1) to be enabled, as that setting is what causes outbound WordPress password-reset emails — including the reset URL and key — to be mirrored into the push row queue where they become accessible to the attacker. No further endpoint or implementation detail is disclosed beyond the path described here.

This CVE was published Oct 02, 2026 and is one of 13 known issues for this plugin.
Update, patch or deactivate.
This archive could not verify a fixed version from the official author release notes reviewed on 2026-10-13. Disable the affected feature or component where practical until remediation for the deployed configuration is established. Disable mail-to-push (wpmobile_auto_mail) and invalidate exposed password-reset links. Release 11.83 temporarily disabled the feature; 11.84 hardened triggering and 11.86 reenabled it without confirming remediation of password-reset URL exposure. Do not treat 11.83 or every later release as a confirmed fix. Disable the affected feature or deactivate the component until a confirmed fix is available. Disable mail-to-push until a confirmed fix is available. Never queue password-reset secrets for public retrieval; authenticate push-queue access and bind it to the intended recipient. Invalidate exposed reset links. Official author release notes: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpappninja/.
No confirmed safe version is listed. Consider a vendor-supported patch or temporarily restricting the affected functionality while you assess the risk.
Deactivate only when warranted by your risk profile, or when advised by your hosting provider in the limited circumstances where the vulnerability cannot otherwise be mitigated. If you’re unsure which action is appropriate, contact Fused or your hosting provider for guidance.
