# Directorist WordPress plugin: any logged-in user can retry others' orders

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-118534 (this .md is for agents)

The Directorist WordPress plugin before 8.11 does not check that an order used by its checkout payment-retry REST action belongs to the requesting user. An authenticated user, including a subscriber, can create payment-attempt records against other users' orders.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Check the installed Directorist version in the WordPress plugins screen or `wp plugin get directorist --field=version`
- Confirm whether the site accepts customer accounts with the subscriber role

## Fix

- Directorist: `8.11` or later (the plugin's version before 8.11 is affected)

## Timeline

- 2026-11-07T06:46:04+00:00 nvd https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-118534

## From the sources

The Directorist: AI-Powered Business Directory, Listings & Classified Ads WordPress plugin before 8.11 does not verify that the order targeted by its checkout payment-retry REST action belongs to the requesting user, allowing any authenticated user, such as a subscriber, to create payment-attempt records against other users' orders.
