    The MDJM Event Management plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.8.4. This is due to missing capability checks and nonce verification in the `MDJM_Permissions::set_permissions()` and `MDJM_Employee_Manager::init()` functions, combined with the absence of server-side allow-list validation on the `employee_roles[]` and `new_role` POST parameters before they are passed to `mdjm_set_employee_role()` and `WP_User::set_role()`. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to grant arbitrary MDJM capabilities — including `mdjm_employee` and `mdjm_employee_edit` — to any registered WordPress role, and subsequently leverage a subscriber-level account to escalate privileges to Administrator. `MDJM_Permissions::init()` is registered on the public WordPress `init` hook without any authentication gate, meaning the role-manipulation endpoint is reachable without any prior login.

  • Jul 23, 2026Registrations For The Events Calendar: SQL InjectionCVE-2026-13119 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.5

    The Registrations For The Events Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via JSON keys in the 'standard' parameter handled by the rtec_records_edit AJAX action in versions up to and including 3.2. The handler decodes attacker-controlled JSON from $_POST['standard'] and uses the JSON array keys directly as column identifiers in the SET clause of an UPDATE statement built inside RTEC_Db_Admin::update_entry(). Only esc_sql() (mysqli_real_escape_string) is applied to the identifier; that function escapes quotes, backslashes, and a few control characters but does not escape spaces, equals signs, parentheses, or hyphens, so an attacker can break out of the identifier context and inject subqueries (terminated with a SQL comment). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above who can edit the targeted event, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

    Ninja Forms WordPress plugin version 3.14.8 and prior contains a missing authorization vulnerability in the render callback of the `ninja-forms/submissions-table` Gutenberg block that allows authenticated attackers with Author-level privileges to expose stored form submissions to unauthenticated visitors by embedding the block with an arbitrary formID on a published post. Attackers can retrieve the signed bearer token injected into every page visitor's browser via `wp_localize_script` and use it against the REST API submissions endpoint to access all saved form submission field values, including sensitive personally identifiable information such as names, email addresses, and phone numbers.

  • Jul 21, 2026Easy Form Builder by WhiteStudio: Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation to AdministratorCVE-2026-13439 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    The Easy Form Builder by WhiteStudio plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation to Administrator in versions up to, and including, 4.0.11 This is due to the password recovery flow using the publicly-visible session identifier ('sid') as the password reset token stored in wp_emsfb_temp_links, combined with a publicly-accessible nonce refresh endpoint (Emsfb/v1/nonce/refresh) that issues valid WordPress REST nonces to unauthenticated visitors. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to reset the password of any WordPress user — including administrators — by scraping the public sid from a published login form page, submitting a recovery request for any known user email via Emsfb/v1/forms/message/add, and then calling Emsfb/v1/forms/recovery/efb_set_password with the known sid to set an arbitrary new password and gain full administrator access.

    The PhonePe Payment Solutions WordPress plugin before 3.1.0 does not properly verify the authenticity of incoming payment callbacks: the secret used to validate the callback signature is empty on sites configured through the current setup flow, so the expected signature reduces to an unkeyed hash of the request body that anyone can compute.

    The Aimogen Pro - All-in-One AI Content Writer, Editor, ChatBot & Automation Toolkit plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.4. This is due to due to a missing capability check on the 'aiomatic_call_google_ai_function' function.

    The Bricksforge plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.8.6. This is due to improper validation of the fieldIds parameter in the Pro Forms registration action, which allows attacker-supplied field IDs to be added to the trusted form-field whitelist. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register a new administrator account by submitting a crafted request to a publicly accessible Bricksforge Pro Forms registration form. Successful exploitation requires that the site has a public Bricksforge Pro Forms element configured with the User Registration action.

  • Jul 16, 2026WPFunnels – Funnel Builder for WooCommerce with Checkout & One Click Upsell: Privilege EscalationCVE-2026-15103 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 8.8

    The WPFunnels – Funnel Builder for WooCommerce with Checkout & One Click Upsell plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation via arbitrary option update in all versions up to, and including, 3.12.8. This is due to the `update_settings()` REST callback failing to validate the `group_id` path parameter against an allowlist of permitted option names before passing it directly to `get_option()` and `update_option()`, allowing the built-in `wp_user_roles` option — which satisfies the route's loose `[\w-]+` regex — to be targeted. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with the `wpf_manage_funnels` capability and above to elevate their privileges to administrator by writing a crafted role definition containing arbitrary capabilities into the `wp_user_roles` option, thereby granting any WordPress role full site administrator access. The `wpf_manage_funnels` capability is typically assigned to the Funnel Manager custom role created by the plugin, meaning this role is the minimum required to exploit the vulnerability.

  • Jul 11, 2026Planyo Online Reservation System: Server-Side Request Forgery leading to Local File InclusionCVE-2026-3576 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The Planyo Online Reservation System plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery leading to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 3.0. The ulap.php file acts as an AJAX proxy and is directly accessible without WordPress bootstrapping or any authentication. The send_http_post() function validates the host of the provided URL against an allowlist that includes 'localhost', but critically fails to validate the URL scheme/protocol. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to supply a file:// URL (e.g., file://localhost/etc/passwd) which bypasses the host allowlist check because parse_url() returns 'localhost' as the host. The URL is then passed to curl_init() or fopen(), both of which support the file:// protocol, allowing the attacker to read arbitrary local files on the server and have their contents returned in the HTTP response. This can lead to disclosure of sensitive files such as /etc/passwd, wp-config.php (containing database credentials and authentication keys), and other server-side files.

  • Jul 11, 2026Simple JWT Login – Allows you to use JWT on REST endpoints.: Authentication Bypass to Privilege EscalationCVE-2026-14262 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 8.8

    The Simple JWT Login – Allows you to use JWT on REST endpoints. plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.6 via the `payload` parameter. The vulnerability exists because `AuthenticateService::generatePayload()` only overwrites JWT payload keys whose names appear in the admin-configured `jwt_payload` list — leaving any attacker-supplied identity claims such as `email`, `id`, or `username` intact and signed into the JWT with the site's HS256 secret. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to escalate their privileges to that of an Administrator by injecting a target administrator's email address into the `payload` parameter at the `/wp-json/simple-jwt-login/v1/auth` endpoint, then redeeming the resulting JWT at the `/autologin` endpoint to obtain a fully authenticated session as that administrator.

    The Lockme OAuth2 calendars integration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'App ID' setting in all versions up to, and including, 2.11.0. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. The register_setting() call on line 197 lacks a sanitize callback, allowing unsanitized data to be stored via update_option(). When the settings page is rendered, the stored value is echoed directly into an HTML input's value attribute without esc_attr() on line 212. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in the settings page that will execute whenever a user accesses the plugin settings page. Multiple fields are affected: App ID (client_id), App Secret (client_secret), Bookings ID prefix (id_prefix), and API domain (api_domain). This vulnerability is particularly impactful in WordPress multisite installations where administrators of individual sites should not be able to execute JavaScript affecting other users.

    The LA-Studio Element Kit for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.1 via the get_type_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. The wp_normalize_path function used in get_template only normalizes directory separators and does not resolve or reject path traversal sequences, while the extension check is trivially bypassed because the caller already appends the required extension to the traversal payload.

    The Eventin – Event Calendar, Event Registration, Tickets & Booking (AI Powered) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a regression in versions from 4.0.26 up to and including 4.1.15. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action in the payment_complete() function of PaymentController.php. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to mark unpaid ticket orders as completed by submitting a fabricated SureCart checkout ID or FluentCart cart hash, granting themselves paid event access, QR-code attendee tickets, and order confirmation emails without making any real payment. The wp_rest nonce required to reach the vulnerable endpoint is embedded in every public event page, meaning no WordPress session or credentials are needed to obtain it. This vulnerability represents a regression — the same function and endpoint were previously patched but the fix did not persist through subsequent releases.

The vulnerability is reachable via the unauthenticated wp_ajax_nopriv_r34ics_ajax AJAX action, which accepts attacker-controlled js_args values merged over stored shortcode configuration without nonce verification, allowing the htmltagtitle key to bypass the normal shortcode allowlist check.

    The Booking calendar, Appointment Booking System plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via the ‘wpdevart_id’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.17 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. In order to exploit the vulnerability, the Pro version of the plugin must be installed and activated, with the 'Delete previous dates' option checked.

    The EventPrime – Events Calendar, Bookings and Tickets plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'new_event_type_background_color' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.3.4.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with custom-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This requires the plugin's Guest Submissions setting (allow_submission_by_anonymous_user) to be enabled, which allows unauthenticated attackers to submit event types via the frontend form; when that setting is disabled, exploitation requires at minimum a subscriber-level authenticated account.

    The Hydra Booking – Appointment Scheduling & Booking Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in versions up to, and including, 1.2.1 via the /wp-json/hydra-booking/v1/booking/details/{id} REST endpoint. This is due to the getBookingDetails() callback only enforcing the tfhb_manage_options capability via tfhb_manage_options_permission(), without verifying that the requested booking belongs to the currently authenticated host (the lookup in getBookingDetailsData() filters solely on the booking id supplied in the URL). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Hydra Host-level access and above (a role created by the plugin which grants tfhb_manage_options), to view sensitive booking records belonging to other hosts, including attendee names, emails, phone numbers, addresses, meeting details, payment method and status, transaction history, and internal notes by iterating booking IDs.

    The LatePoint – Calendar Booking Plugin for Appointments and Events plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Improper Input Validation in all versions up to, and including, 5.4.0. This is due to the plugin's Stripe Connect payment processor accepting a client-supplied PaymentIntent ID. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to pay an arbitrary amount by supplying a previously succeeded PaymentIntent token.

    The Themehunk Login Registration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in versions up to, and including, 1.0.2. This is due to the handle_frontend_register() function in the unauthenticated /thlogin/v1/register REST endpoint accepting a user-controlled 'role' parameter and validating it only against get_editable_roles() — which returns every defined editable site role, including 'editor' — before passing it to wp_insert_user(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers, when public user registration is enabled, to create new accounts with the editor role.

    The Backstage - Customizer Demo Access plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.2. This is due to the plugin assigning the `manage_options` capability to the `backstage_customizer_user` demo role, which is more permissive than necessary for Customizer-only demo access. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to navigate beyond the Customizer and update arbitrary WordPress options such as `default_role`, leading to privilege escalation.

  • Jul 8, 2026多说社会化评论框: Privilege EscalationCVE-2026-14482 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 8.8

    The 多说社会化评论框 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 1.2. The vulnerability exists due to a missing capability and nonce check on a directly web-accessible API endpoint, combined with a trivially forgeable HMAC-SHA1 signature keyed on an always-empty WordPress option, which allows the endpoint's `update_option` handler to pass attacker-controlled `option` and `value` parameters directly to WordPress's `update_option` function without any allowlist or sanitization. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update arbitrary WordPress options — such as setting `default_role` to `administrator` and enabling open registration — and subsequently register an account with full administrator privileges.

    The RTMKit (rometheme-for-elementor) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in versions up to, and including, 2.0.7 This is due to insufficient path validation on the 'template' parameter in the render_templates AJAX endpoint, which is used directly in a require/include statement without sanitization. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to include and execute files on the server ending in _templates.php, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files.

  • Jul 3, 2026LatePoint – Calendar Booking Plugin for Appointments and Events: Authorization bypassCVE-2026-11398 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.3

    The LatePoint – Calendar Booking Plugin for Appointments and Events plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 5.6.1. 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 modify the personally identifiable information (first name, last name, phone number, and notes) of any existing customer record, including those linked to administrator accounts, by submitting the booking form with a known customer's email address. Exploitation requires the plugin to be configured with guest bookings enabled (is_customer_auth_disabled() returning true), which is necessary for the vulnerable unauthenticated code path in process_step_customer() to be reached.

  • Jul 3, 2026CM Business Directory – Optimise and showcase local business: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-8892 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The CM Business Directory – Optimise and showcase local business plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Business Address Meta Fields in all versions up to, and including, 1.5.7 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. Because the malicious payload is stored in post meta rather than post_content, WordPress's unfiltered_html capability restriction does not apply, meaning contributors who lack that capability can still inject executable HTML via the address meta fields such as cmbd_address, cmbd_cityTown, cmbd_stateCounty, cmbd_postalcode, cmbd_region, and cmbd_country.
