CVE-2026-4038 is an arbitrary function call vulnerability in the Aimogen Pro plugin for WordPress affecting all versions up to and including 2.7.5. The issue is caused by a missing capability check in the plugin function 'aiomatic_call_ai_function_realtime'. Because the function does not properly verify whether the caller is authorized, an unauthenticated attacker can invoke arbitrary WordPress functions through the vulnerable code path. Reported exploitation includes calling the core WordPress function 'update_option' to modify site configuration, specifically enabling user registration and changing the default registration role to administrator. This can then be used to create a new administrator account and obtain full administrative access to the vulnerable WordPress site.
