9.9 · CRITICAL
Published Jul 8, 2026 CWE-522

Overview

CVE-2026-56843 is a critical-severity vulnerability. It was published on July 8, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.9 (CRITICAL).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.9, rated CRITICAL. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical Description

Incorrect authorization in the XML-RPC API of WebPros Plesk before 18.0.78.4 allows a low-privileged authenticated customer to look up domains they do not own, because ownership is enforced only for certain lookup filters and schema validation is bypassed for legacy protocol versions. This results in cross-tenant disclosure of other tenants' FTP credentials stored in cleartext, which can be leveraged to execute code as another tenant's system user.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
