  • Sep 5, 2026Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-76573 · affects up to 3.3.9.1 · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'not_found' Shortcode Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.9.1 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.

  • Sep 4, 2026Pods: Does not restrictCVE-2026-74853 · fixed in 3.3.9.2 · reported by WPScanMedium 6.8

    The Pods WordPress plugin before 3.3.9.2 does not restrict which functions a display callback may resolve to, allowing users with the author role and above to read arbitrary files from the server, including files outside the web root. Only sites using the restricted display-callback mode are affected, which is the automatic default on installations whose first Pods version predates 3.1.

  • Aug 26, 2026Pods: Does not correctly compare a display callback against its list of blocked functionsCVE-2026-74851 · fixed in 3.3.9.1 · reported by WPScanHigh 7.2

    The Pods WordPress plugin before 3.3.9.1 does not correctly compare a display callback against its list of blocked functions, allowing users with the author role and above to execute arbitrary code on the server. Only sites using the restricted display-callback mode are affected, which is the automatic default on installations whose first Pods version predates 3.1.

  • Aug 15, 2026Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields: Privilege EscalationCVE-2026-19598 · affects up to 3.3.9 · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    The Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation via Authorization Bypass in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.9. The vulnerability exists because the pods_admin AJAX router funnels every access check — including the method allowlist, nonce verification, login enforcement, and capability gate — through pods_error(), which under the JSON meta-box-loader compatibility path only writes failures to the PHP error log and returns false instead of terminating the request, rendering all guards ineffective. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to escalate their privileges to Administrator or overwrite the password of any user account, including the site owner's, enabling complete site takeover, or perform another administrator action.

  • Jun 16, 2026Unauthenticated Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in Pods <= 3.3.8 versions.CVE-2026-54191 · affects up to 3.3.8 · reported by PatchstackHigh 7.1

    Unauthenticated Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in Pods <= 3.3.8 versions.

  • Jan 6, 2025Pods: Does not sanitise and escape some of its settingsCVE-2024-11849 · fixed in 3.2.8.1 · reported by WPScanMedium 6.1

    The Pods WordPress plugin before 3.2.8.1 does not sanitise and escape some of its settings, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup).

  • Nov 5, 2024Pods: Does not sanitise and escape some of its settingsCVE-2024-9883 · fixed in 3.2.7.1 · reported by WPScanMedium 4.8

    The Pods WordPress plugin before 3.2.7.1 does not sanitise and escape some of its settings, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup).

  • May 14, 2024Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2024-3956 · affects up to 3.2.1 · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.4

    The Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Pod Form widget in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. 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.

  • Apr 9, 2024Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields: Remote Code ExxecutionCVE-2023-6999 · affects up to 3.0.10 · reported by WordfenceHigh 8.8

    The Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Exxecution via shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.10 (with the exception of 2.7.31.2, 2.8.23.2, 2.9.19.2). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor level access or higher, to execute code on the server.

  • Apr 9, 2024Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields: SQL InjectionCVE-2023-6967 · affects up to 3.0.10 · reported by WordfenceHigh 8.8

    The Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.10 (with the exception of 2.7.31.2, 2.8.23.2, 2.9.19.2) 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 or higher, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

  • Apr 9, 2024Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields: Missing AuthorizationCVE-2023-6965 · affects up to 3.0.10 · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.3

    The Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.10 (with the exception of 2.7.31.2, 2.8.23.2, 2.9.19.2). This is due to the fact that the plugin allows the use of a file inclusion feature via shortcode. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor access or higher, to create pods and users (with default role).
