CVE-2026-2941 is a high-severity vulnerability (CVSS 8.8) affecting the Linksy Search and Replace plugin for WordPress, specifically versions up to and including 1.0.4. A missing capability check in the 'linksy_search_and_replace_item_details' function allows authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access to modify any database table. This enables privilege escalation, as attackers can change their own role to administrator, leading to high impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. There is currently no evidence of active exploitation, no public exploit code available, and minimal community discussion surrounding this vulnerability.
