  • Oct 3, 2026The Beaver Builder Page Builder – Drag and Drop Website Builder: Arbitrary shortcode executionCVE-2026-92084 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.1

    The The Beaver Builder Page Builder – Drag and Drop Website Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution in all versions up to, and including, 2.11.0.5. 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 unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary shortcodes. Exploitation requires the target site to have a Beaver Builder page containing the Sidebar module populated with a widget that displays attacker-controllable text, such as the core Recent Comments widget, with comment moderation disabled or the attacker's comment approved.

  • Oct 3, 2026VikAppointments Services Booking Calendar: Arbitrary file deletionCVE-2026-87115 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.1

    The VikAppointments Services Booking Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the extract function in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.21. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers 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). Exploitation requires at least one File-type custom field to be published on the confirmation page shortcode, as this field is not created by default during plugin installation.

  • Oct 2, 2026Divi Membership: Privilege EscalationCVE-2026-19652 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    The Divi Membership plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in versions up to, and including, 2.2.0. This is due to the `dmem_form_submit_handler()` function determining the new user's role by iterating all WordPress roles and calling `password_verify()` against an attacker-controlled bcrypt hash supplied in the `form_id` POST parameter, with no validation or whitelist of allowed roles. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register a new account with the administrator role by submitting a locally computed bcrypt hash of `administrator` as `form_id`, and when `auto_login=on` is submitted, be immediately authenticated as that administrator in the same request, resulting in full site takeover. Exploitation requires a WordPress nonce, but that nonce is publicly emitted on any page rendering the Divi Membership registration form and is therefore obtainable by any unauthenticated visitor.

  • Oct 2, 2026WPMobile.App – Android and iOS App Builder: Authorization bypassCVE-2026-94541 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    The WPMobile.App – Android and iOS App Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 11.82 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 exfiltrate password-reset URLs for arbitrary users, including administrators, mirrored into the push queue by the mail-to-push feature, and use those URLs to take over the targeted accounts. This exploit chain requires the plugin's mail-to-push feature (wpmobile_auto_mail=1) to be enabled, as that setting is what causes outbound WordPress password-reset emails — including the reset URL and key — to be mirrored into the push row queue where they become accessible to the attacker.

  • Oct 2, 2026JSON API Auth: Authentication BypassCVE-2026-97637 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    The JSON API Auth plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass via Cached Session Cookie Disclosure in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.2. The vulnerability exists because the required PI-Media/json-api parent plugin caches controller dispatch results in transients keyed solely by URI and query string, ignoring HTTP method and POST body; this causes the `generate_auth_cookie()` endpoint — which embeds a live WordPress `logged_in` cookie produced by `wp_generate_auth_cookie()` directly in its JSON response body — to serve that cached authenticated response to any subsequent unauthenticated GET request to the same URI. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to retrieve a valid Administrator `logged_in` session cookie from the cached response and use it to fully authenticate as the site Administrator, including via the same plugin's `get_currentuserinfo` endpoint and any cookie-authenticated controller action. Exploitation requires the PI-Media/json-api parent plugin to be installed and active with the Auth controller enabled, and a legitimate Administrator must have POSTed to `/api/auth/generate_auth_cookie/` within the preceding 24-hour cache TTL;

  • Oct 2, 2026Super Forms – Drag & Drop Form Builder: Directory TraversalCVE-2026-15896 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.1

    The Super Forms – Drag & Drop Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 6.3.316 via the parse_request function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read the contents of arbitrary files on the server, which can contain sensitive information. The optional 'file_upload_auth' setting defaults to empty, meaning no authentication is required in the default configuration; enabling this setting mitigates unauthenticated exploitation but does not remediate the path traversal itself. Exploitation on Linux requires a real 13-digit timestamp directory to exist, whereas on Windows the traversal works with any hardcoded 13-digit prefix. However, the plugin's file upload response returns the name of the created directory, which means the vulnerability is exploitable as long as file upload is enabled on the form.

  • Oct 2, 2026Divi Membership: Authentication BypassCVE-2026-19660 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    The Divi Membership plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in all versions up to, and including, 2.3.0. The `process_paypal_callback` function, hooked to the `init` action, accepts a base64-encoded `paypal_param` GET parameter with no IPN validation, no cryptographic signature check, no ownership verification, and no nonce, allowing it to trust an entirely attacker-controlled user ID value that is passed directly to `wp_set_current_user()` and `wp_set_auth_cookie()`. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as any existing WordPress user — including administrators — by supplying an arbitrary user ID in the `paypal_param` GET parameter, resulting in full site takeover. The vulnerability is further compounded by the fact that the PayPal gateway class is instantiated unconditionally regardless of whether PayPal is enabled or configured, ensuring the vulnerable hook is always registered on every front-end request.

  • 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.

    The Ultimate Multisite – WordPress Multisite SaaS & WaaS Platform plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in all versions up to, and including, 2.15.0 via the `checkout_form` parameter of the `login_customer_after_checkout` function. This is due to the publicly accessible `wu_ajax_nopriv_wu_validate_form` AJAX handler accepting a freely obtainable checkout nonce, and the `checkout_form=wu-finish-checkout` parameter causing `get_validation_rules()` to discard all validation rules while `finish_checkout_form_fields()` returns an empty step list — forcing `is_last_step()` to return true and routing the request directly into full order processing — after which `maybe_create_customer()` resolves the attacker-supplied `email_address` to an existing WordPress user ID without any authentication or ownership verification, and `login_customer_after_checkout()` calls `wp_set_auth_cookie()` for that user ID via a passwordless code path. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as any existing WordPress user — including a Network Super Admin — simply by knowing their email address. Exploitation requires that the targeted user account has no pre-existing

    The Super Forms – Drag & Drop Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 6.3.316. This is due to the Register & Login add-on's before_email_success_msg() function whitelisting the client-submitted 'role' key and copying it into the user-data array that is passed directly to wp_insert_user(), without validating the submitted role against the administrator-configured register_user_role, without an allow-list, and without any current_user_can() capability check. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register a new account with the Administrator role by injecting role=administrator into the data submitted to any published Super Forms registration form (register_login_action='register').

    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.

  • Sep 26, 2026miniOrange OTP Login, Verification and SMS Notifications: Authentication BypassCVE-2026-85984 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    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.

  • Sep 26, 2026Request a Quote for WooCommerce: Arbitrary File UploadCVE-2026-18143 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    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.

  • Sep 25, 2026Bookly: Insecure Direct Object ReferenceCVE-2026-93399 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.1

    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.

  • Sep 25, 2026Customer Reviews for WooCommerce: Authorization bypassCVE-2026-89055 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.1

    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.

  • Sep 25, 2026Automation Web Platform – Notifications and OTP for WooCommerce, Advanced Country Code: Privilege EscalationCVE-2026-14281 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    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.
