Aug 27, 2026UpdraftPlus: WP Backup & Migration: Does not have CSRF checks in one of its backup management actionsCVE-2026-76549 · fixed in 1.26.7 · reported by WPScanMedium 5.9
The UpdraftPlus: WP Backup & Migration Plugin WordPress plugin before 1.26.7 does not have CSRF checks in one of its backup management actions, which could allow attackers to make a logged in admin restore an existing backup, reverting the site's database and files to an earlier state, via a crafted link.
Jun 11, 2026UpdraftPlus: WP Backup & Migration: Authentication BypassCVE-2026-10795 · affects up to 1.26.4 · reported by WordfenceHigh 8.1
The UpdraftPlus: WP Backup & Migration Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.26.4 via the UpdraftPlus_Remote_Communications_V2::wp_loaded function. This is due to insufficient validation of the remote communications message format, where signature verification can be bypassed and unchecked decryption return values collapse to a predictable all-zero encryption key. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to forge arbitrary RPC commands and run them as the connected administrator, such as uploading and activating a malicious plugin, which ultimately leads to remote code execution.

Jan 4, 2025UpdraftPlus: WP Backup & Migration: PHP Object InjectionCVE-2024-10957 · reported by WordfenceHigh 8.8
The UpdraftPlus: WP Backup & Migration Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions from 1.23.8 to 1.24.11 via deserialization of untrusted input in the 'recursive_unserialized_replace' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject a PHP Object. No known POP chain is present in the vulnerable software, which means this vulnerability has no impact unless another plugin or theme containing a POP chain is installed on the site. If a POP chain is present via an additional plugin or theme installed on the target system, it may allow the attacker to perform actions like delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute code depending on the POP chain present. An administrator must perform a search and replace action to trigger the exploit.

Nov 7, 2023UpdraftPlus: WordPress Backup & Migration: Cross-Site Request ForgeryCVE-2023-5982 · affects up to 1.23.10 · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.4
The UpdraftPlus: WordPress Backup & Migration Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.23.10. This is due to a lack of nonce validation and insufficient validation of the instance_id on the 'updraftmethod-googledrive-auth' action used to update Google Drive remote storage location. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify the Google Drive location that backups are sent to via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link. This can make it possible for attackers to receive backups for a site which may contain sensitive information.
