    The Unlimited Elements For Elementor WordPress plugin before 2.0.20 does not perform a capability check on an AJAX action and deserializes attacker-controlled stored data through it, which makes it possible for authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access to inject arbitrary PHP objects. A partial fix in the 2.0.18 to 2.0.19 releases raised the privilege required to reach the vulnerable action to editor-level, and the issue was fully resolved in 2.0.20.

  • Sep 19, 2026WP Ghost (Hide My WP Ghost) – Security & Firewall: Open RedirectCVE-2026-7527 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.7

    The WP Ghost (Hide My WP Ghost) – Security & Firewall plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Open Redirect in all versions up to, and including, 7.0.02. This is due to the plugin not properly validating user input. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to redirect users to potentially malicious sites if they can successfully trick them into clicking on a specially crafted link. Exploitation requires tricking a logged-in user into clicking a crafted logout URL; the victim is fully logged out via wp_logout() before the malicious redirect is issued, making the logout irreversible as part of the attack chain.

  • Sep 19, 2026Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7: Does not validate the type or extension of files uploaded through one of its form fieldsCVE-2026-84750 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WPScanMedium 6.5

    The Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 WordPress plugin before 3.5.51 does not validate the type or extension of files uploaded through one of its form fields, and stores them at a predictable public path with the attacker-chosen extension intact, allowing unauthenticated users to upload arbitrary files. The PHP handler shipped by default with the Debian and Ubuntu Apache packages maps .phar to PHP alongside .php and .phtml, so on that stack the uploaded file is executed and the issue leads to Remote Code Execution and full site takeover. Where the host routes only .php to the PHP handler, the same file is instead served from the site's own origin with its script intact, leading to Stored Cross-Site Scripting.

    The Hide My WP Ghost WordPress plugin before 7.0.11 does not properly validate a loopback security-check request before disabling its login and URL hiding protection, dropping that protection precisely when the request's verification value is missing or incorrect, which any visitor can arrange, allowing unauthenticated attackers to re-expose the concealed WordPress login page location.

    The Hide My WP Ghost WordPress plugin before 7.0.11 does not verify that a request is a genuine WooCommerce request before disabling its firewall, threat-detection and login/URL-hiding protections, treating the mere presence of an attacker-suppliable request parameter as sufficient, which allows unauthenticated attackers to disable those protections and re-expose the concealed login and admin URLs on any request.

    The Yo WordPress plugin from 1.1 through 1.3.1 does not sanitize or parameterize the username request parameter before using it in a SQL query, and reads it before WordPress applies its request escaping, allowing unauthenticated attackers to perform SQL injection and read arbitrary database contents including administrator password hashes.

    The To Do List Member WordPress plugin from 1.4 through 1.6 ships a file upload endpoint that does not load WordPress and therefore applies no authentication, capability or nonce check of any kind, and validates only the name of an uploaded file rather than its content, allowing unauthenticated users to store active content served from the site's own origin, and to list and delete the files already staged there.
