Oct 29, 2026Password Protected: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-93293 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4
The Password Protected plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the bundled Freemius SDK's purchase-completion handler in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. Once the site's Freemius opt-in is complete (the normal state after an administrator clicks "Allow & Continue"), the handler processes the 'purchased_plan' request parameter on any wp-admin request from an authenticated user without any capability, nonce, or purchase validation, and stores it in a persistent, site-wide administrative notice. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute automatically when an administrator views a standard admin page such as their Profile page.

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.

The Anti-Spam by CleanTalk – Spam Protection Without CAPTCHA plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'comment' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 6.88 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 vulnerability is exploitable once a comment from the attacker's email address has been approved; on default WordPress installations, only the first comment from a given email address is held for moderation, meaning subsequent comments auto-approve and immediately expose the payload to site visitors.

Sep 30, 2026Newsletter – Send awesome emails from: Insufficiently Protected CredentialsCVE-2026-92537 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.3
The Newsletter – Send awesome emails from WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insufficiently Protected Credentials in all versions up to, and including, 9.3.9 The plugin's public click-tracking REST route `/tnp/l/` is registered with `permission_callback => '__return_true'` and, upon receiving a valid keyed-MD5 signature, calls `set_user_cookie()`, which emits a `Set-Cookie: newsletter=<id>-<raw_token>` response header to the requester because the subscriber object loaded via `get_user()` lacks the `_trusted` property, causing `get_user_key()` to return the raw token column value instead of its MD5-masked variant. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers who obtain any signed click-tracking URL for a target subscriber to receive that subscriber's permanent raw authentication cookie, which they can then use to export the subscriber's full PII record via the JSON profile-export endpoint (`?na=px`), rewrite the subscriber's stored profile (`?na=ps`), and silently unsubscribe the subscriber via the RFC-8058 one-click endpoint (`?na=ocu`), none of which require a nonce, password, or email challenge.

The Link Library WordPress plugin before 7.9.6 does not validate the destination of a user-supplied URL before falling back to an unprotected fetch when its safe request is rejected, allowing unauthenticated visitors to make the site issue requests to hosts on its internal network and to learn from the response whether an internal service answered.

Sep 16, 2026All-in-One WP Migration and Backup: Insufficient Credential ProtectionCVE-2026-89064 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.3
The All-in-One WP Migration and Backup plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insufficient Credential Protection in versions up to, and including, 7.110. This is due to the `Ai1wm_Main_Controller::init()` method — registered on the `admin_init` hook, which fires unauthenticated on `admin-ajax.php` and `admin-post.php` requests — reading `$_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER']` and `$_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW']` from any incoming request and writing them to the `ai1wm_auth_header` option via `update_option()` as a reversible base64-encoded string, with no capability check, nonce verification, `is_user_logged_in()` check, or confirmation that Basic authentication actually succeeded. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to capture into the database, in reversible base64 form, any WordPress Application Password or HTTP Basic credential presented to `/wp-admin/` by a legitimate integration, or to overwrite the stored credential with an attacker-chosen value by sending an anonymous request carrying a crafted `Authorization: Basic` header. This is particularly impactful in environments using WordPress Application Passwords for REST API or third-party integrations, as those credentials are tr

Aug 12, 2026Total Upkeep: Does not adequately protect the secret that authorizes its backup-restore functionality and exposes it to unauthenticated usersCVE-2026-16253 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WPScanHigh 7.5
The Total Upkeep WordPress plugin before 1.17.3 does not adequately protect the secret that authorizes its backup-restore functionality and exposes it to unauthenticated users, allowing them to disclose sensitive backup information and to force a full site restore that overwrites the live site's files and database. This is an incomplete fix of CVE-2020-36848, as the protection added at the time never took effect on distributed copies of the plugin.
