Seckhmet – Weekly WordPress Vulnerability Report (21/09/2026 to 28/09/2026)

Component : web-to-print-online-designer (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-434

The Web to Print Online Designer WordPress plugin before 2.15.0 does not validate the type or extension of uploaded files, and hands the token protecting those uploads to any visitor who asks for it, allowing unauthenticated attackers to upload arbitrary files, including PHP ones, and run code on the server.

Component : Give Tributes (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-502

The Give Tributes plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 2.3.1 via deserialization of untrusted input . This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject a PHP Object. No known POP chain is present in the vulnerable software, which means this vulnerability has no impact unless another plugin or theme containing a POP chain is installed on the site. If a POP chain is present via an additional plugin or theme installed on the target system, it may allow the attacker to perform actions like delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute code depending on the POP chain present. This vulnerability is only reachable when the “Allow Multiple Recipients” option is enabled for the donation form, as the single-recipient code path applies sanitize_textarea_field() which would neutralize the payload. Exploitation additionally requires the eCard “Custom Message” option to be disabled, which is the plugin default: when it is enabled the personalized message becomes a required field and GiveWP’s give_clean() blanks serialized input during validation, causing the donation to be rejected before it is stored.

Component : Meta Box AIO (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-269

The Meta Box AIO plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation to Administrator in versions up to, and including, 3.11.0. This is due to a chained flaw: the populate_via_query_string() function in the mb-frontend-submission component unconditionally overrides the form’s target object_id from the GET parameter ‘rwmb_frontend_field_object_id’ without any authorization check, and Form::process() lacks the user_can_edit() check present in render(), allowing unauthenticated attackers to overwrite the post_content of any page with an arbitrary shortcode via wp_update_post(); the mb-user-profile component then directly trusts the ‘role’ and ‘auto_login’ shortcode attributes in the injected [mb_user_profile_register] shortcode with no role validation. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to elevate their privileges to Administrator. The standalone plugins Meta Box Frontend Submission (in versions up to 4.5.6) and Meta Box User Profile (versions up to 3.11.0) are also affected.

Component : Meta Box User Profile (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-269

The Meta Box AIO plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation to Administrator in versions up to, and including, 3.11.0. This is due to a chained flaw: the populate_via_query_string() function in the mb-frontend-submission component unconditionally overrides the form’s target object_id from the GET parameter ‘rwmb_frontend_field_object_id’ without any authorization check, and Form::process() lacks the user_can_edit() check present in render(), allowing unauthenticated attackers to overwrite the post_content of any page with an arbitrary shortcode via wp_update_post(); the mb-user-profile component then directly trusts the ‘role’ and ‘auto_login’ shortcode attributes in the injected [mb_user_profile_register] shortcode with no role validation. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to elevate their privileges to Administrator. The standalone plugins Meta Box Frontend Submission (in versions up to 4.5.6) and Meta Box User Profile (versions up to 3.11.0) are also affected.

Component : Meta Box Frontend Submission (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-269

The Meta Box AIO plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation to Administrator in versions up to, and including, 3.11.0. This is due to a chained flaw: the populate_via_query_string() function in the mb-frontend-submission component unconditionally overrides the form’s target object_id from the GET parameter ‘rwmb_frontend_field_object_id’ without any authorization check, and Form::process() lacks the user_can_edit() check present in render(), allowing unauthenticated attackers to overwrite the post_content of any page with an arbitrary shortcode via wp_update_post(); the mb-user-profile component then directly trusts the ‘role’ and ‘auto_login’ shortcode attributes in the injected [mb_user_profile_register] shortcode with no role validation. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to elevate their privileges to Administrator. The standalone plugins Meta Box Frontend Submission (in versions up to 4.5.6) and Meta Box User Profile (versions up to 3.11.0) are also affected.

Component : Visual Composer Website Builder (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-98

The Visual Composer Website Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 45.16.0 via the `vcv-template` parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to include and execute arbitrary files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where images and other “safe” file types can be uploaded and included.

Component : Paytium: Mollie payment forms & donations (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-269

The Paytium: Mollie payment forms & donations plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.3. The 5.0.3 patch introduced a wp_hash()/hash_equals() signature gate on the pt-paytium-user-data field, but left a second filter — pt_cf_checkout_meta(), registered on the pt_meta_values hook after the signed builder — that copies every $_POST[‘pt_form_field’][*] key verbatim into the payment meta array without any signature verification; this allows the pt-user-role value it copies to overwrite the signed path’s output, after which paytium_user_data_processing() reads the persisted _pt-user-role post meta and passes it directly as the role argument to wp_insert_user(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register a new WordPress account with the administrator role and fully take over the site. Exploitation requires submitting a payment through a publicly-exposed [paytium] shortcode form and completing the resulting payment flow, after which the attacker can seize the new administrator account via the standard lost-password flow on their supplied email address.

Component : Automation Web Platform – Notifications and OTP for WooCommerce, Advanced Country Code (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-269

The Automation Web Platform – Notifications and OTP for WooCommerce, Advanced Country Code plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 4.8.6. This is due to missing permission enforcement on the publicly accessible REST route `POST /wp-json/wawp/v1/signup/<op>` and the absence of a key allowlist in the `finish_registration_logic` function, which copies the attacker-controlled `wawp_custom_fields` parameter directly into `update_user_meta()` — allowing sensitive meta keys such as `wp_capabilities` and `wp_user_level` to be set by the caller. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register a new account with the administrator role and gain full administrative access to the site. When OTP verification is enabled at signup, the OTP session token (`otp_transient`) is returned in plaintext in the HTTP response body, and the `handle_magic_link_request()` handler marks that token as verified on any unauthenticated GET request containing it without ever checking the OTP code value — making the OTP step trivially bypassable with no inbox or SMS access required.

Component : Request a Quote for WooCommerce (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-434

The Request a Quote for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in all versions up to, and including, 2.9.2 via the `afrfq_submit_quote_via_popup()` function. This is due to missing file extension and MIME type validation in the popup upload handler, which uses the raw attacker-supplied filename directly as the destination for `move_uploaded_file()`. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload executable files, such as PHP files, to a web-accessible temporary RFQ upload directory when a public quote rule with the multi-page popup flow is enabled.

Component : Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-434

The Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload due to insufficient file type validation in the ‘uacf7_wpcf7_mail_components’ function in all versions up to, and including, 3.5.50. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload arbitrary files on the affected site’s server which may make remote code execution possible. Note: This is only exploitable when the plugin’s PDF Generator module is enabled, which is disabled by default.

Component : miniOrange OTP Login, Verification and SMS Notifications (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-287

The miniOrange OTP Login, Verification and SMS Notifications plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass via the mo_wp_login_intent parameter in all versions up to, and including, 5.5.5. This is due to a missing password-intent guard in the skip_pass_fallback-enabled configuration branch of the mo_by_pass_login() function, which treats administrator role membership alone as sufficient authentication whenever the unauthenticated, unverified POST parameter mo_wp_login_intent is submitted with the value otp, causing mo_get_user() to skip wp_authenticate_username_password() and resolve a WP_User purely from a username lookup. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as any existing administrator account by supplying only a known username and an empty password alongside mo_wp_login_intent=otp, with no password or OTP verification required. Exploitation is conditional on a site administrator having simultaneously enabled the following plugin options: WP Login OTP, Login with Only OTP, Allow Users to Login with Username and Password, and Admin OTP Bypass.

Component : Customer Reviews for WooCommerce (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The Customer Reviews for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 5.120.0. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to permanently delete arbitrary attachments from the Media Library — including administrator-owned product images, logos, and documents — by injecting their IDs into a review that is later trashed and purged. Exploitation requires a public review-form link (a 13-hex formId distributed to customers via e-mail), which exposes the nonce needed to reach the handler without any WordPress account or session.

Component : Online Scheduling and Appointment Booking System – Bookly (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-639

The Bookly plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in versions up to, and including, 28.2 via the ‘bookly_get_form_id’, ‘bookly_render_complete’, ‘bookly_add_to_calendar’ and ‘bookly_rollback_order’ AJAX actions. This is due to the ‘bookly_get_form_id’ handler blindly storing the attacker-controlled ‘order_id’ from the submitted form_data into a new booking session, which the ‘bookly_render_complete’ handler then trusts to look up and return the corresponding Order’s secret token without verifying that the current session created that order. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to enumerate sequential order IDs, disclose other customers’ order tokens, retrieve calendar/appointment information via ‘bookly_add_to_calendar’ and permanently delete arbitrary non-completed bookings via ‘bookly_rollback_order’, which cascade-deletes the customer_appointment and (when no other customers are attached) the underlying appointment.

Component : BM Content Builder (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-22

The BM Content Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the ux_cb_remove_layout_ajax() and ux_cb_tools_export_ajax() functions in all versions up to, and excluding, 3.17.1. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to delete arbitrary files on the server, which can easily lead to remote code execution when the right file is deleted (such as wp-config.php).

Component : YOP Poll (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-346

The YOP Poll plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Origin Validation Error in all versions up to, and including, 7.0.10. This is due to the plugin transmitting a wp_rest nonce to window.opener via postMessage() with a wildcard targetOrigin. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to steal a REST nonce scoped to a logged-in Administrator and use it to change the Administrator’s email address and password, resulting in full account takeover. The Administrator must open an attacker-controlled page in order to exploit this vulnerability.

Component : Import and export users and customers (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-266

The Import and export users and customers plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.17 via the plugin’s own export and re-import workflow. The vulnerability exists because the exporter writes CSV cells using fputcsv() with a NUL byte (\0) as the escape character, while the importer parses the same file using SplFileObject::fgetcsv() with only a single delimiter argument, causing PHP’s default backslash escape character to be applied instead; because the export column layout places display_name immediately before the role column and nickname immediately after, an attacker can store crafted values in those two profile fields — saved by WordPress core via the standard profile page — such that the escape mismatch causes the parser to merge the display_name cell into the role field and rebalance the column count via nickname, yielding administrator as the parsed role for their own row when it reaches the import_user function’s add_role function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access or above to escalate their privileges to Administrator. Exploitation requires a site administrator to trigger the plugin’s documented export re-import migration with both “Update existing users” and “Update roles for existing users” set to “yes”.

Component : Knit Pay – Cashfree, Instamojo, Razorpay, PayPal and more (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-269

The Knit Pay – Cashfree, Instamojo, Razorpay, PayPal and more plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 9.6.1.0. This is due to the `maybe_update_user_role()` function reading the target role directly from an attacker-controlled Gravity Forms entry field — configured via the feed’s `user_role_field_id` — and passing it to `WP_User::set_role()` without validating the supplied value against an allowlist of permitted roles. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to elevate their privileges to administrator by tampering with the hidden role field value at form submission time. Exploitation is further enabled by the fact that $0 orders are synchronously marked as SUCCESS during form submission without requiring a real payment, and when no GF User Registration user can be resolved, the role assignment target falls back to `$lead[‘created_by’]` — the currently authenticated submitter’s own user ID — making any authenticated form submitter an eligible exploitation target.

Component : s2Member – Excellent for All Kinds of Memberships, Content Restriction Paywalls & Member Access Subscriptions (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-94

The s2Member – Excellent for All Kinds of Memberships, Content Restriction Paywalls & Member Access Subscriptions plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 260814 via the ‘first_name’ parameter parameter. This is due to insufficient sanitization of the first_name parameter via esc_refs(), which strips only regex backreferences and not PHP tags, before substitution into the eval’d Signup Tracking Codes template, combined with disclosure of the site-global proxy verification key that allows PayPal postback verification to be bypassed. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute code on the server. Successful exploitation requires that the site administrator has configured a Signup Tracking Codes template containing the %%first_name%% placeholder (a documented, GUI-supported feature) and that the attacker has obtained the site-global proxy verification key, which is exposed in plaintext in the JSON response of any PayPal Checkout AJAX request on the target site.

Component : Elementor Website Builder – more than just a page builder (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-352

The Elementor Website Builder – more than just a page builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions 4.3.0 to 4.3.1. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the is_own_route_request function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to perform any authenticated REST action available to the victim’s role, including creating administrator-level accounts, modifying site options, or deleting content, while the victim’s cookie session remains fully authenticated via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

Component : Groups – Memberships and Access Control (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-269

The Groups – Memberships and Access Control plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 4.6.0. This is due to the groups_join() function deriving group-join eligibility from the ambient post’s author capabilities via the global $post->post_author rather than from the currently authenticated user’s own capabilities, while simultaneously minting and returning a valid groups-join-data hash and WordPress nonce for the caller in the same response — eliminating all authorization barriers to self-enrollment. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to enroll themselves into any group including privileged groups carrying the groups_admin_groups capability, and to subsequently create and join a group containing every registered WordPress capability, effectively escalating their privileges to Administrator. Exploitation requires the attacker to supply an Administrator-authored post ID via the post_ID parameter of the authenticated wp_ajax_parse_media_shortcode handler in order to establish the privileged ambient post context used by the flawed authorization check.

Component : WP Ultimate Review (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-94

The The WP Ultimate Review plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.2. This is due to the software allowing users to execute an action that does not properly validate a value before running do_shortcode. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to execute arbitrary shortcodes.

Component : HUSKY – Products Filter for WooCommerce Professional (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-98

The HUSKY – Products Filter for WooCommerce Professional plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.4 via the ‘shortcode’ parameter parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to include and execute arbitrary .php files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where .php file types can be uploaded and included. This vulnerability is exploitable by unauthenticated users because the only access control is a nonce check against woof_front_nonce, which is publicly emitted into inline JavaScript on every front-end page and is therefore obtainable by any site visitor without authentication.

Component : EthPress – Web3 Login (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-287

The EthPress – Web3 Login plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in all versions up to, and including, 2.3.5. This is due to the verify_login() function in app/Login.php containing a missing return statement in the signature verification failure branch — when Signature::verify2() reports a mismatch, the function only assigns a WP_Error to a local variable and continues executing, causing unconditional fall-through to the login block where Address::log_in() calls wp_set_auth_cookie() regardless of whether the submitted signature is valid. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as any WordPress user who has a linked wallet address — including administrators — by submitting that user’s public wallet address alongside an arbitrary well-formed signature, enabling full site takeover.

Component : Modula Image Gallery – Photo Grid & Video Gallery (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The Modula Image Gallery – Photo Grid & Video Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the upload_image function in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to delete arbitrary files on the server. The path restriction to wp-content/uploads is not an effective ownership boundary, as all user attachment files reside within that tree, and Authors trivially satisfy the edit_post check on their own galleries.

Component : WordPress Core (Core)

CWE : CWE-98

WordPress Core is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion via the locate_template() function in various versions up to, and including, 7.1.1. The function resolved a caller-supplied template name against the theme directories without verifying the result stayed within them, so a template name containing ‘..’ could resolve to a readable PHP file outside the active theme and be included. The core-reachable vector is get_page_template(), which builds page-{$pagename}.php from the URL-derived, url-decoded ‘pagename’ query variable. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to make page-template resolution include a chosen readable local .php file outside the theme directories, which under certain conditions can lead to remote code execution. Exploitation requires (1) the active parent or child theme to contain a top-level directory whose name begins with ‘page-‘ (e.g. ‘page-templates’ in Twenty Twelve, Twenty Fourteen, Neve, Hestia, Sydney), and (2) a readable .php target on the server accessible to the web-server account (e.g. pearcmd.php with register_argc_argv=On, as in the official PHP Docker image and default cPanel setups on PHP < 8.5), which yields RCE.

Component : WP Travel Engine – Tour Booking Plugin – Tour Operator Software (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-98

The WP Travel Engine – Tour Booking Plugin – Tour Operator Software plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 6.8.0 via the wte_get_template function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to include and execute arbitrary .php files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where .php file types can be uploaded and included.

Component : Rename wp-login.php to anything you want (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-89

The Rename wp-login.php to anything you want plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via ‘log’ (Username) Parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.1 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. WordPress core applies wp_unslash() to the ‘log’ POST value before dispatching the wp_login_failed action, stripping magic-quotes backslash escaping and allowing a raw single quote to reach the plugin’s handler unimpeded.

Component : eesy_ID2WP – Publish InDesign HTML5 (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-22

The eesy_ID2WP – Publish InDesign HTML5 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Path Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.3 via the `id2wp_path` parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read the contents of arbitrary files on the server, which can contain sensitive information.

Component : WP Maps – Google Maps, OpenStreetMap, Mapbox, Store Locator with Search, Filters & Listings (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-98

The WP Maps – Google Maps,OpenStreetMap,Mapbox,Store Locator,Listing,Directory & Filters plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 4.9.8 via the ‘page’ parameter parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to include and execute arbitrary .php files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where .php file types can be uploaded and included.

Component : Modula Image Gallery – Photo Grid & Video Gallery (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The Modula Image Gallery – Photo Grid & Video Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized disclosure of private gallery contents in versions up to, and including, 3.0.1. This is due to the Modula_Meta::add_metas() function being hooked to wp_head on every frontend request and looking up any post via get_post( $_GET[‘modula_gallery_id’] ) without verifying the gallery’s post_status or the requester’s capability to read it — the gallery-side input guard is bugged (empty(‘modula_gallery_id’) tests a nonempty string literal instead of the GET parameter, so it is always false), the only object validation is a post_type === ‘modula-gallery’ check, and no is_user_logged_in()/current_user_can(‘read_post’, $gallery_id) check is performed. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to enumerate private modula-gallery posts and their member attachments and recover the image’s title, description, dimensions, and original upload URL via Open Graph/Twitter meta tags emitted in the response, which then allows direct unauthenticated download of the original private image bytes.

Component : Optima Express IDX (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-269

The Optima Express IDX plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 8.7.5. This is due to the `provisionBlogCredentials()` function in `iHomefinderAdmin.php` being reachable via the `wp_ajax_nopriv_ihf_clear_cache` AJAX action — through the call chain `iHomefinderAjaxHandler::clearCache()` → `activateAuthenticationToken()` → `getAuthenticationInfo()` → `provisionBlogCredentials()` — with no capability check, nonce verification, or ownership validation, and the function unconditionally calling `$user->set_role(‘author’)` on whichever WordPress account matches the hard-coded login `optima-express` via `get_user_by(‘login’, ‘optima-express’)`. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to escalate a pre-registered `optima-express` account to the Author role, gaining `publish_posts`, `upload_files`, and `edit_published_posts` capabilities, including access to the plugin’s own `/wp-json/optima-express/v1/blog-post` REST endpoint. Exploitation requires open user registration to be enabled on the target site, and the attacker must register the `optima-express` username before the plugin has had the opportunity to provision that login for its own integration account.

Component : TranslatePress – Translate Multilingual sites with AI Translation (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The TranslatePress – Translate Multilingual sites with AI Translation plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Translation Memory Suggestion Panel (v-html on suggestion.original) in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Unauthenticated attackers can seed the translation dictionary’s original column with executable HTML because the front-end rendering pipeline decodes entity-encoded payloads via html_entity_decode() before persistence, and the original column is deliberately exempt from kses filtering — meaning no save-time sanitizer neutralizes the stored payload before it is later rendered in an administrator’s session.

Component : Ninja Forms – Contact Form Builder with Calculators, Quizzes, Signatures & AI Form Builder (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

Ninja Forms 3.15.3 stores an anonymous non-RTE textarea value and renders it without safe HTML encoding in the legacy submission editor. An attacker can break out of the textarea with stored script. When an Administrator opens the attacker-known direct submission URL, the script runs in the WordPress admin origin.

Component : WP Yelp Review Slider (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The WP Yelp Review Slider plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Yelp Review Text (imported via wpyelp_download_source) in all versions up to, and including, 9.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The malicious payload originates from an anonymous Yelp reviewer on a public platform and requires no WordPress account; it is introduced into the database during the site administrator’s ordinary use of the plugin’s Download Reviews feature, making the effective attacker unauthenticated.

Component : WPC Product Bundles for WooCommerce (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The WPC Product Bundles for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘qty’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 8.6.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The float cast used during quantity validation allows a numeric-prefixed payload such as ‘1<img src=x onerror=…>’ to pass validation while retaining its malicious HTML, which is then stored verbatim in order item metadata under the ‘_woosb_ids’ key.

Component : CMP – Coming Soon & Maintenance Plugin by NiteoThemes (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-269

The CMP – Coming Soon & Maintenance Plugin by NiteoThemes plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data that can lead to privilege escalation due to a missing capability check on the ‘cmp_ajax_import_settings’ AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 4.1.17. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Editor-level access and above, to update arbitrary options on the WordPress site. This can be leveraged to update the default role for registration to administrator and enable user registration for attackers to gain administrative user access to a vulnerable site.

Component : Fancy Product Designer (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Fancy Product Designer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Shortcode Order ‘elements[].title’ Parameter in all versions up to, and including, 6.5.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The injected payload is written to the DOM via innerHTML within the beforeElementAdd JavaScript event handler when processing the elements[].title field from the stored order JSON, meaning execution occurs specifically when an administrator reviews shortcode orders in the WordPress admin panel.

Component : Themify Builder (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Themify Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via ‘css[fonts]’ Parameter in all versions up to, and including, 7.8.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The nonce required to reach the vulnerable endpoint is embedded in plain sight within the front-end page markup for all visitors, reducing the access control to a CSRF token rather than an authentication barrier and making the endpoint fully exploitable by unauthenticated attackers.

Component : Fancy Product Designer (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Fancy Product Designer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via ‘productTitle’ in ‘_fpd_data’ Order Item Meta in all versions up to, and including, 6.5.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The fpd_save_order AJAX action is registered for unauthenticated users via wp_ajax_nopriv_fpd_save_order with no nonce or capability check, and the strip_tags() sanitization applied at save time is bypassed by submitting JSON unicode escape sequences (e.g. \u003c, \u003e), which json_decode() silently converts back to literal angle brackets when the order is rendered in the admin view.

Component : Restaurant Menu and Food Ordering (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Restaurant Menu and Food Ordering plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘phone_number’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.14 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Component : BA Book Everything (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The BA Book Everything plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via first_name Parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.27 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. An unauthenticated attacker can obtain the valid order_id, order_num, and order_hash credentials required to reach the vulnerable action_to_pay() handler simply by placing a guest booking through the public [babe-booking-form] shortcode, making the full exploit chain reachable without any account.

Component : Fancy Product Designer (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Fancy Product Designer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘output_format’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 6.5.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This requires the Pro Export/Genius feature to be enabled on the site, as the vulnerable fpd_pr_export AJAX action is only registered when that feature is active.

Component : Repeater Fields for Elementor Forms (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Repeater Fields for Elementor Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Repeater Field Value in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.7 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Component : HT Contact Form – Drag & Drop Form Builder for WordPress (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The HT Contact Form – Drag & Drop Form Builder for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored DOM-Based Cross-Site Scripting via ‘form_data’ Rich Text Field via Draft Save/Resume in all versions up to, and including, 2.10.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Exploitation requires tricking a user into clicking an attacker-supplied draft resume URL, which the attacker constructs using the draft_key and access_token returned directly in the save response.

Component : Premium Packages – Sell Digital Products Securely (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Premium Packages – Sell Digital Products Securely plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via ‘cart_items[][product_name]’ Parameter in all versions up to, and including, 7.2.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The checkout REST route uses permission_callback set to __return_true and the invoice loader performs no order ownership check, meaning an unauthenticated attacker can both persist the payload and ensure it is renderable to any logged-in user who accesses the invoice.

Component : Zero Spam for WordPress (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Zero Spam for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Nested POST Array Keys via Contact Form 7 Integration in all versions up to, and including, 5.7.10 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The payload is delivered by submitting a Contact Form 7 request with a nested POST array key containing arbitrary HTML or JavaScript — PHP parses the field name into a nested array key, which is stored verbatim in the zerospam_log.submission_data column when Zero Spam flags the submission as spam due to the absence of the zerospam_david_walsh_key field.

Component : AMP for WP – Accelerated Mobile Pages (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The AMP for WP – Accelerated Mobile Pages plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Content via Regex Transformation in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.16 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The crafted payload uses only WordPress-permitted comment tags and attributes (an anchor with href and title), and the AMP sanitizer pipeline omits javascript: protocol blocking, meaning neither the comment save filter nor the AMP output stage removes the malicious URI introduced by the transformation.

Component : User Profile Builder – Beautiful User Registration Forms, User Profiles & User Role Editor (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The User Profile Builder – Beautiful User Registration Forms, User Profiles & User Role Editor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Avatar Field in all versions up to, and including, 4.0.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The zero-length multipart file branch in wppb_save_avatar_value() writes the raw request value directly to user meta, bypassing the wppb_save_attachment_id()/wppb_verify_attachment_id() validation path; the stored payload is later adopted as a WordPress attachment URL and rendered unescaped by wppb_default_fields_make_upload_button() when an administrator views the affected account.

Component : WP Table Builder – Drag & Drop Table Builder (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-863

The WP Table Builder – Drag & Drop Table Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.1. This is due to an operator precedence bug in the post-type guard within the trash_table_bulk() and restore_table_bulk() functions that causes the guard to never fire, combined with a permission callback that only verifies plugin role membership without per-post-type or ownership checks. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to trash or restore any post, page, or custom post type on the site by supplying arbitrary post IDs.

Component : Text Styler (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Text Styler WordPress plugin through 1.1.1 does not sanitise and escape user-supplied styling values before outputting them within a front-end style block, and does not verify that a user may edit the target post, allowing users with contributor-level access or above to store JavaScript that executes in the browser of anyone viewing the affected post, including administrators.

Component : GiveWP – Donation Plugin and Fundraising Platform (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-74

The GiveWP WordPress plugin before 4.16.9 does not remove shortcode delimiters from donor-supplied values before rendering them on public pages, and the shortcode stripping it applies can be defeated by nesting, allowing unauthenticated users to execute arbitrary shortcodes registered on the site.

Component : BM Content Builder (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-22

The BM Content Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to 3.17.1 (exclusive) via the ux_cb_page_customize_save_layout_ajax() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to read the contents of arbitrary files on the server, which can contain sensitive information.

Component : Advanced Contact form 7 DB (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The Advanced Contact form 7 DB plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to missing authorization in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.9. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to read all Contact Form 7 submission data via the ‘acf7db’ shortcode.

Component : Custom Thank You Page for WooCommerce (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The Custom Thank You Page for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access and loss of data due to a missing capability check on the save_option() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.2. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to to export or reset(delete) the plugin’s settings.

Component : Better Messages – Chat Rooms, Group Chat, Private Messages & AI Chat Bots (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-89

The Better Messages – Chat Rooms, Group Chat, Private Messages & AI Chat Bots plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via ‘group_id’ Message Meta Parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.4 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. Exploitation requires the BuddyBoss Platform plugin to be installed with its Social Groups component disabled, a state that persists on any site that has previously toggled the Groups component off since BuddyBoss does not drop the wp_bp_groups table upon deactivation.

Component : Contextual Related Posts (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Contextual Related Posts plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via ‘other_attributes’ Block Parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.4.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Component : Live Composer – Free WordPress Website Builder (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Live Composer – Free WordPress Website Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via ‘dslc_module_downloads_output’ Shortcode Content in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.21 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The save-time wp_kses_post check is bypassed because the payload is stored as a serialized string containing no HTML tags for kses to tokenize, and the shortcode callback re-emits attacker-controlled values — including view_all_link (href attribute), main_heading_title (h2 body), button_text (anchor body), and button_inline_svg (anchor body) — without any escaping at render time.

Component : Getwid – Gutenberg Blocks (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Getwid – Gutenberg Blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Google Maps block’s ‘customStyle’ attribute in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.3. This is due to the use of eval() on user-controlled block content in the frontend JavaScript mapStyles() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Component : Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 3.5.50. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Component : WP Multilang – Translation and Multilingual Plugin (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The WP Multilang – Translation and Multilingual Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the post content in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.31 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Component : GeoDirectory – WP Business Directory Plugin and Classified Listings Directory (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The GeoDirectory – WP Business Directory Plugin and Classified Listings Directory plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Text-type Custom Field (e.g., ‘phone’) in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.181 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The payload must be stored in a text-type custom field (such as a phone field) via the AJAX geodir_save_post endpoint, using entity-encoded angle brackets (e.g., <img src=x onerror=alert(1)>) to bypass the strpos()-gated tag-stripping check.

Component : wpForo Forum (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The wpForo Forum plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘telegram’ profile field in versions up to, and including, 3.1.6. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the profile_update action — the raw $_POST[‘data’] array is copied into a $custom_fields variable before validate() and sanitize() run, both of which operate only on a parallel $user reference, leaving $custom_fields unsanitized when it is persisted via update_custom_fields(); on render, wpforo_decode() reverses the entity encoding and the value is echoed without escaping in field_wrap_profile(). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Component : GeoDirectory – WP Business Directory Plugin and Classified Listings Directory (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The GeoDirectory – WP Business Directory Plugin and Classified Listings Directory plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘business_hours’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.183 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This is possible because the AJAX save handler validates only post authorship and a nonce with no additional capability check, allowing any subscriber-level user who owns a listing to exploit this vulnerability.

Component : CSS & JavaScript Toolbox (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The CSS & JavaScript Toolbox plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin’s cjtoolbox shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 12.0.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Component : Automatic.css (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Automatic.css plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via REQUEST_URI in all version 4.0.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts that will execute whenever an administrator accesses the Activity Log settings page.

Component : Gutenverse – WordPress Blocks, Page Builder & Site Editor (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Gutenverse – WordPress Blocks, Page Builder & Site Editor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Post Comment Block ‘suffixMain’ Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 4.0.8 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. WordPress core wp_kses_post sanitization does not mitigate this vulnerability because the payload is stored inside a Gutenberg block delimiter comment rather than as a raw HTML tag, and is only rendered as exploitable HTML at the PHP render stage.

Component : User Profile Builder – Beautiful User Registration Forms, User Profiles & User Role Editor (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The User Profile Builder – Beautiful User Registration Forms, User Profiles & User Role Editor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Avatar Field in all versions up to, and including, 4.0.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This is exploitable via a nonce-free GET request to /wp-admin/profile.php, requiring no profile-form submission; a Subscriber can plant the malicious attachment URL, which then executes when an administrator opens that user’s Edit User screen.

Component : WP Maps – Google Maps, OpenStreetMap, Mapbox, Store Locator with Search, Filters & Listings (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The WP Maps – Google Maps,OpenStreetMap,Mapbox,Store Locator,Listing,Directory & Filters plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via shapes_values Parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.9.8 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The fc-call-nonce nonce required by the endpoint is exposed to all frontend visitors who view a map page via window.wpgmp_local.nonce, enabling any authenticated subscriber to read the nonce and craft a valid request; additionally, the secondary _wpnonce check in the drawing handler can be bypassed by simply omitting the _wpnonce parameter from the request.

Component : Better Messages – Chat Rooms, Group Chat, Private Messages & AI Chat Bots (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Better Messages – Chat Rooms, Group Chat, Private Messages & AI Chat Bots plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored DOM-Based Cross-Site Scripting via User Display Name in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This is exploitable by Subscriber-level users because WordPress core’s sanitize_text_field() preserves HTML-entity-encoded payloads (e.g., an iframe srcdoc attribute), allowing the encoded string to be stored as a display name without requiring the unfiltered_html capability, and the plugin subsequently decodes it server-side before rendering.

Component : Booking Calendar (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Booking Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘wpbc_auto_fill’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 11.8.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

Component : JetFormBuilder — Dynamic Blocks Form Builder (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The JetFormBuilder — Dynamic Blocks Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via ‘jfb_xss’ (URL Query Variable) Parameter via Calculated Field in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.5.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. Exploitation requires the targeted page to host a form configured with both a URL Query Variable preset field and a Calculated Field that references it, which are standard plugin features.

Component : SSL Zen — SSL Certificate Installer & HTTPS Redirects (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The SSL Zen plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘uri’ (and ‘host’) parameters in versions up to, and including, 4.7.42. The ssl_zen_messages::getMessages() function builds the ‘token_missmatch’ message using base64_decode(sanitize_text_field($_REQUEST[‘uri’])) and (optionally) base64_decode(sanitize_text_field($_REQUEST[‘host’])). sanitize_text_field() cannot strip HTML/JavaScript that is hidden inside a base64-encoded blob, and the resulting decoded raw HTML is echoed unescaped by showMessage() . This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a specially crafted link.

Component : WPForms – AI Form Builder for WordPress – Contact Forms, Payment Forms, Survey Form, Quiz & More (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The WPForms – AI Form Builder for WordPress – Contact Forms, Payment Forms, Survey Form, Quiz & More plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via ‘page_title’ POST Parameter via {page_title} Smart Tag in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. This is only exploitable on forms whose admin-authored confirmation message places the {page_title} Smart Tag inside an HTML attribute context.

Component : Asset CleanUp: Page Speed Booster (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-918

The Asset CleanUp: Page Speed Booster plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.0.5 via the ‘page_url’ parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to make web requests to arbitrary locations originating from the web application and can be used to query and modify information from internal services. This vulnerability is only reachable when the plugin’s dom_get_type setting has been configured to ‘wp_remote_post’ by an administrator.

Component : Kirki – Freeform Page Builder, Website Builder & Customizer (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-918

The Kirki – Freeform Page Builder, Website Builder & Customizer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Blind Server-Side Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 6.2.0 via the ‘kirki_data’ Parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to make web requests to arbitrary locations originating from the web application and can be used to query and modify information from internal services.

Component : RestroPress – Online Food Ordering System (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-472

The RestroPress WordPress plugin before 3.4.6 does not validate a client-supplied item add-on price on the server side when items are added to or updated in the cart, allowing unauthenticated users to set an arbitrary price and place orders for an attacker-chosen total, down to and including zero.

Component : Payment Gateway for PayPal on WooCommerce (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-345

The Payment Gateway for PayPal on WooCommerce WordPress plugin before 9.2.1 does not verify that an incoming payment notification was confirmed in the store’s configured payment environment or paid to the store’s own merchant account before marking an order complete, allowing unauthenticated users to mark their own orders as paid using a genuine transaction from a payment sandbox they control.

Component : Image Buzz (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The Image Buzz plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized API key modification due to missing authorization checks in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.3. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify arbitrary API keys (Pixabay, Unsplash, Pixels) configured by site administrators via the ‘pixabay_api’, ‘unsplash_api’, or ‘pixels_api’ parameters.

Component : PixelPlay (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The PixelPlay plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized API key deletion due to missing authorization checks in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.2. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary API keys (Pixabay, Unsplash, Pixels, OpenAI) configured by site administrators via the ‘clear_api_type’ parameter.

Component : Handily (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The Handily plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized payment settings modification due to missing authorization checks in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.3. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify Stripe payment configuration settings, including publishable keys, secret keys, email addresses, success URLs, and cancel URLs via the payment settings parameters. This could allow attackers to redirect payments to their own Stripe accounts.

Component : TrustedLogin Connector (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-200

The TrustedLogin Connector plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.3. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to extract sensitive user or configuration data.

Component : WP User Manager – Registration Form, Login Form, User Profile & Member Directory (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The WP User Manager – User Profile Builder & Membership plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access in all versions up to, and including, 2.9.19. This is due to a missing capability check on a function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to perform an unauthorized action.

Component : Online Scheduling and Appointment Booking System – Bookly (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-285

The Online Scheduling and Appointment Booking System – Bookly plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authorization Bypass via PHP Type Juggling in all versions up to, and including, 28.2. This is due to the `postValidateCustomer()` function using a loose PHP inequality operator (`!=`) to compare the session-stored one-time verification code against the attacker-supplied `verification_code` parameter — a flaw that is further exposed by the booking AJAX controller registering all its methods as `wp_ajax_nopriv_` handlers and unconditionally overriding `csrfTokenValid()` to return true, leaving the endpoint both unauthenticated and CSRF-unprotected. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to bypass the phone/email ownership verification step and overwrite the name, email, phone, and address fields of any arbitrary existing Bookly customer record, redirecting that customer’s booking notifications to attacker-controlled contact details. The bypass is achievable because the `json_data` input channel decodes input via `json_decode()`, which preserves real PHP types and causes the `wp_kses` filter to leave non-string values such as the JSON boolean `true` untouched; submitting `true` as the `verification_code` satisfies the loose comparison against the session’s non-zero integer code (generated by `mt_rand(100000, 999999)`), causing `true != <non-zero int>` to evaluate as `false` and the guard to be bypassed.

Component : Product Feed Manager for WooCommerce – CTX Feed – Support 220+ Shopping, AI & Social Channels (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-22

The Product Feed Manager for WooCommerce – CTX Feed – Support 220+ Shopping & Social Channels plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 6.6.43 via the ‘provider’ parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with shop manager-level access and above, to delete arbitrary files on the server, which can lead to remote code execution when critical files are deleted. Exploitation requires two sequential REST API calls: first to /wp-json/ctxfeed/v1/make_feed/save_feed_config to persist the traversal payload in wp_options, then to /wp-json/ctxfeed/v1/manage_feeds/delete_feed to trigger the unlink(); deletion is further constrained to files whose extensions match the plugin’s validated whitelist (csv, xml, tsv, xls, xlsx, json, txt).

Component : SSL Zen — SSL Certificate Installer & HTTPS Redirects (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-22

The SSL Zen — SSL Certificate Installer & HTTPS Redirects plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 4.7.42 via the ‘file_name’ parameter parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to read the contents of arbitrary files on the server, which can contain sensitive information.

Component : Hostel (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-79

The Hostel plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘custom_currency’ parameter and the ‘locale_url’ setting in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.8 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.

Component : RW Elephant Rental Inventory (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The RW Elephant Rental Inventory plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to and including 2.3.13. This is due to a missing capability check on the toggle_cache() function which is hooked to the wp_ajax_toggle_cache AJAX action. The function also lacks nonce verification. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to toggle the plugin’s cache setting on or off by sending a POST request to admin-ajax.

Component : WP User Manager – Registration Form, Login Form, User Profile & Member Directory (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The WP User Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the Connect::complete() function in versions up to, and including, 2.9.18. The function is registered on the admin_init hook (which fires for every authenticated user that reaches /wp-admin/, including Subscribers) and performs no current_user_can() or nonce verification before fetching Stripe credentials from the external WPUM connect service and writing them (publishable key, secret key, gateway mode, and connected Stripe account ID) into the wpum_settings option via wpum_update_option()/update_option(). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to hijack the site’s Stripe integration by completing their own Stripe Connect OAuth flow and then invoking the callback on the target site, causing all subsequent Stripe payments to be routed to the attacker’s Stripe account.

Component : Tutor LMS – eLearning and online course solution (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-639

The Tutor LMS – eLearning and online course solution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in versions up to, and including, 4.0.7 via the tutor_quiz_builder_save AJAX action due to missing validation that nested question_id, answer_id, deleted_question_ids[], and deleted_answer_ids[] values in the submitted payload belong to a quiz/topic/course the requester is authorized to manage. The handler only validates the top-level course_id, topic_id, and (when supplied) payload[‘ID’], but the nested identifiers are passed straight into $wpdb->update/DELETE statements in QuizBuilder::save_questions(), QuizBuilder::save_question_answers(), and QuizBuilder::handle_delete(). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Instructor-level access and above, to overwrite the content and re-parent arbitrary quiz questions/answers belonging to other instructors or administrators, and to delete arbitrary quiz question and answer rows.

Component : WP-CRM System – Manage Clients and Projects (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-200

The WP-CRM System – Manage Clients and Projects plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 3.4.6 via the ‘contact_id’ parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to extract full names, email addresses, phone numbers, mobile numbers, fax numbers, and physical address information of arbitrary CRM contact records by enumerating the contact_id parameter.

Component : Custom Field Template (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-639

The Custom Field Template plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.8 via the edit_meta_value due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to delete arbitrary media attachments site-wide by supplying any numeric attachment ID in the file-field parameter alongside the corresponding delete flag, causing content loss and broken pages. Exploitation requires that the attacker’s post is governed by a Custom Field Template containing at least one file-type field with the mediaRemove option not enabled, which is the default configuration for file fields.

Component : wpForo Forum (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The wpForo Forum plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.5. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to take over another guest author’s forum post and modify its title, body, author name, and stored owner email address. This requires that guest posting and editing are enabled on the forum, and that the attacker knows the target guest author’s email address.

Component : ThumbPress – Compress Images, Manage Thumbnails, Detect Image Issues, WebP/AVIF, Lazy Loading, Hotlinking & More (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The ThumbPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access in versions up to and including 6.2.1. This is due to missing capability checks and nonce verification in the send_deactivation_survey() function registered via the wp_ajax_pl-plugin-deactivation AJAX action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to deactivate the ThumbPress plugin on the affected site by sending a crafted POST request to admin-ajax.

Component : MailerLite – Signup forms (official) (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The MailerLite – Signup forms (official) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the forms() method of the AdminController class in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.21. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to create or delete arbitrary signup forms.

Component : Spectra Legacy – Gutenberg Blocks (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-200

The Spectra Legacy – Gutenberg Blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 2.20.0 via the editor_assets function, which exposes the uag_insta_linked_accounts option through the uagb_blocks_info object without a capability check. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to extract sensitive data including raw Instagram Graph API access tokens configured by an administrator. Exploitation requires the Spectra Pro plugin to be active with a linked Instagram account.

Component : OpenStation: Desktop Windows, Dock & Virtual Desktops for WP Admin (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The OpenStation — Desktop Windows, Dock & Virtual Desktops for WP Admin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.7. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with custom-level access and above, to read the title, status, date, permalink, and a 300-character content excerpt of any private, draft, pending, or future post, as well as the content and AI-moderation verdicts of unapproved and spam comments. Any authenticated user with the ‘read’ capability can self-enable the required AI feature by visiting the /openstation/ portal and toggling their own ai.enabled setting via the POST /desktop-mode/v1/os-settings endpoint, removing any practical barrier to exploitation.

Component : Blog2Social: Social Media Auto Post & Scheduler (Plugin)

CWE : CWE-862

The Blog2Social: Social Media Auto Post & Scheduler plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 9.1.0. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to view, modify, or delete other users’ Blog2Social records, including disclosing another user’s network authentication IDs and scheduled post content, overwriting Open Graph and Twitter Card post metadata on posts they do not own, rebinding another user’s social-network authorization, and mass-hiding all users’ scheduled posts sitewide. The plugin’s b2s_security_nonce is emitted on the post-edit meta box, which Contributors can render, making the nonce available to any authenticated user at that role level or above.
