Sep 2, 2026Comments: Does not validate a value used to build a database queryCVE-2026-19704 · fixed in 7.6.66 · reported by WPScanMedium 5.3
The Comments WordPress plugin before 7.6.66 does not validate a value used to build a database query, allowing unauthenticated users to inject SQL and read comments they are not entitled to see, including comments awaiting moderation, comments marked as spam or trashed, and comments on private and draft posts.

Jul 3, 2026Comments – wpDiscuz: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-9148 · affects up to 7.6.56 · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2
The Comments – wpDiscuz plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the guest commenter 'Website' field in versions up to, and including, 7.6.56 This is due to insufficient output escaping in the getCommentAuthor() function, which interpolates the stored comment_author_url value directly into single-quoted HTML attributes without applying esc_url() or esc_attr(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
