CVE-2026-56843 is an incorrect authorization vulnerability in the XML-RPC API of WebPros Plesk affecting versions before 18.0.78.4. A low-privileged authenticated customer can query domain records they do not own because ownership checks are enforced only for certain lookup filters, and schema validation can be bypassed when using legacy XML protocol versions below 1.4.2.0. Successful exploitation enables cross-tenant access to domain-related data and disclosure of other tenants' FTP credentials, which are stored in cleartext. Those credentials can then be used to upload malicious content and potentially execute code as another tenant's system user.
