WordPress Core 6.9-7.0.1 - Pre-Auth Batch-Route Confusion

WordPress core versions 6.9.0 through 6.9.4 and 7.0.0 through 7.0.1 are vulnerable to a pre-authentication route confusion issue in the REST API batch endpoint (/?rest_route=/batch/v1). A malformed nested batch request desynchronizes the batch router, allowing unauthenticated requests to reach unintended REST API handlers and bypass authorization checks. This route confusion can be chained with a SQL injection flaw (CVE-2026-60137) in the author_exclude parameter to extract database contents and ultimately achieve remote code execution. This template safely detects the vulnerable handler state via the route confusion behavior alone, without executing SQL or relying on response timing.
