    The PeproDev Ultimate Profile Solutions plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the `logout-url` shortcode's 'button' attribute in all versions up to, and including, 8.2.36 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes.

  • Oct 10, 2026Photo Reviews for WooCommerce: Stored DOM-Based Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-100161 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The Photo Reviews for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored DOM-Based Cross-Site Scripting via the 'wcpr_image_upload_id' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.30 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 publicly-emitted `wcpr_image_upload` nonce printed on every product review form is the only gate, and no capability, authentication, or attachment ownership check is performed, allowing the payload to be stored in comment meta — which is not subject to `wp_kses` — by any unauthenticated visitor; the XSS fires once the review is visible on the frontend.

  • Oct 10, 2026Filter Everything — WordPress & WooCommerce Filters: Reflected Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-87869 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.1

    The Filter Everything — WordPress & WooCommerce Filters plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to, and including, 1.9.6. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the flrt_elementor_load_more_anchor() function. The function reads query parameters from $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] via getFormActionOrFullPageUrl(true), which URL-decodes them through parse_str() and re-assembles them using build_query() — a WordPress core function that does NOT re-encode values ($urlencode=false). The resulting URL, containing unescaped special characters, is injected into a data-next-page HTML attribute via preg_replace() without esc_attr() or esc_url(). 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.

    The Photo Reviews for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary Content Deletion in versions up to, and including, 1.2.30. This is due to the plugin storing attacker-controlled post IDs from the wcpr_image_upload_id parameter of a public review submission into the review's reviews-images comment meta without verifying that the IDs correspond to attachments owned by the submitter, combined with the delete_reviews_image() handler unconditionally calling wp_delete_post( $id, true ) on every stored ID when the review is deleted. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to permanently delete arbitrary posts, pages, products, or media attachments on the site whenever an administrator subsequently deletes the attacker's review (or when WordPress's built-in wp_scheduled_delete cron empties the comment trash after 30 days).

    The WP Ultimate Review WordPress plugin before 2.4.4 does not validate that a submitted review rating is numeric before storing it and later using it in numeric operations when rendering reviews, allowing unauthenticated users to make the reviewed content fail with a fatal error for all visitors until the review is removed (a persistent denial of service), when user reviews are enabled.

    The WP Ultimate Review WordPress plugin before 2.4.4 does not properly sanitise and escape reviews submitted through its public review form, which is available to unauthenticated visitors, allowing them to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks against any user, including administrators, viewing a page displaying the review, when user reviews are enabled.

  • Oct 3, 2026Rich Showcase for Google Reviews: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-100148 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Rich Showcase for Google Reviews plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'reviews[].text' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 7.1.3 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 is delivered entirely through a Google review posted for the connected business and requires no WordPress account; the plugin's default daily cron auto-imports the malicious review text, and execution triggers for every visitor on DOMContentLoaded without any further user interaction.

    The EmbedPress – PDF Embedder, 3D PDF FlipBook, Google Reviews, YouTube Videos, Upload & Embed PDF documents plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'slidesShow' Block Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 4.6.6 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 slidesShow block attribute is interpolated into an unquoted data-carousel-options HTML attribute, allowing a payload containing spaces to break out of the attribute and inject additional DOM attributes such as onfocus event handlers onto the wrapper element.

  • Oct 2, 2026Customer Reviews for WooCommerce: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-97663 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The Customer Reviews for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Author Name in all versions up to, and including, 5.122.0 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 image attachment feature (ivole_attach_image) to be enabled, which allows unauthenticated attackers to both submit a review with an entity-encoded malicious author name and upload an attached image via the publicly accessible wp_ajax_nopriv_cr_upload_local_images_frontend endpoint.

    The Relevanssi – A Better Search plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Content in all versions up to, and including, 4.28.3 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 is only exploitable when the administrator has configured a non-empty value for the "Allowable tags in excerpts" setting, such as the default example value of &lt;p&gt;&lt;a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;, as the prefix-matching regex must have an allowable tag whose name is a prefix of the injected tag name.

  • Oct 2, 2026Event Tickets and Registration: Generic SQL InjectionCVE-2026-97634 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.5

    The Event Tickets and Registration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'orderby' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 5.29.5 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 contributor-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. A Contributor-level user can reach the vulnerable code path by supplying a post_id they authored, as the can_access_page() gate requires only post authorship rather than the edit_others_posts capability for post owners.

    The Relevanssi Premium plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the '_rt' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.31.4 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 click-tracking and logging feature to be activated in the plugin settings, and exploitation is trivially accessible to unauthenticated users because a valid _rt_nonce is publicly emitted on every search-results page.

    The Popup Maker WP WordPress plugin through 1.4.5 does not perform authorization checks on several of its actions and exposes its management page to any logged-in user, allowing users with a low-privileged role such as Subscriber to store display-targeting values that are later invoked as zero-argument PHP callables on public page loads, leading to sensitive information disclosure and denial of service.

    The BA Book Everything plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'booking_service_qty' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.28 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 that an administrator or other privileged user opens the injected order record in the plugin's wp-admin order management area, which is the plugin's ordinary order-review workflow.

  • Oct 2, 2026DevKit Pro: Authentication Bypass Leading to Administrator Account TakeoverCVE-2026-14378 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    The DevKit Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass Leading to Administrator Account Takeover in all versions up to, and including, 2.3.0 This is due to the `revert_switch` handler trusting the attacker-controlled `original_user_id` cookie as the privileged identity: `verify_nonce_and_capability()` incorrectly checks the `manage_options` capability on the user identified by the cookie rather than on the actual requester via `current_user_can()`, while the switch-back form and a valid session-bound nonce are emitted publicly via `wp_footer` to any visitor — including unauthenticated users — whenever that cookie is present. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to set the `original_user_id` cookie to any administrator's user ID, collect the rendered nonce, and POST it back to the `revert_switch` handler, causing `wp_set_auth_cookie()` to be called with the administrator's ID and granting the attacker a full administrator-level authenticated session and complete site takeover.
