    The Otter Blocks WordPress plugin before 3.2.8 does not correctly determine whether a post is publicly readable before returning its data through a REST API endpoint, treating any post with the published status as public, allowing unauthenticated users to read manual excerpts of password-protected posts, the content and titles of non-public post types, and, on WooCommerce sites, coupon codes and their descriptions.

  • Oct 23, 2026Music Store – WordPress eCommerce: Directory TraversalCVE-2026-115497 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.5

    The Music Store – WordPress eCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.7 via the 'f' parameter parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read the contents of arbitrary files on the server, which can contain sensitive information. Exploitation requires a valid purchase_id token, which any user can obtain by making a single low-cost purchase or receiving a shared download link.

  • Oct 23, 2026Anti-Spam by CleanTalk – Spam Protection Without CAPTCHA: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-109198 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The Anti-Spam by CleanTalk – Spam Protection Without CAPTCHA plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'user_email' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 6.89.1 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. Successful exploitation requires user registration to be open on the site, and script execution is triggered when an Administrator subsequently runs the plugin's user-spam scan and views the resulting Non-checkable users or Spam users tab — the plugin's own documented workflow.

Where this comes from: the exploited list is CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. Everything else is the whole National Vulnerability Database, where each record is published by the team that found the bug (Wordfence, Patchstack, WPScan, the vendors themselves and others); we show who. Exploit odds are FIRST’s EPSS, updated daily. Titles and categories are ours, so check the linked record before acting on a detail. For a write-up of the big ones, see our advisories. Every vendor, and every WordPress plugin and theme with a recorded flaw, also has its own page. All of it is free to reuse as JSON, CSV or RSS.
