  • Mar 18, 2026Post SMTP: Unauthorized modification of dataCVE-2026-2559 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.3

    The Post SMTP plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the `handle_office365_oauth_redirect()` function in all versions up to, and including, 3.8.0. This is due to the function being hooked to `admin_init` without any `current_user_can()` check or nonce verification. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to overwrite the site's Office 365 OAuth mail configuration (access token, refresh token, and user email) via a crafted URL. The configuration option is used during wizard setup of Microsoft365 SMTP, only available in the Pro option of the plugin. This could cause an Administrator to believe an attacker-controlled Azure app is their own, and lead them to connect the plugin to the attacker's account during configuration after upgrading to Pro.

  • Feb 25, 2026Post Duplicator: Unauthorized arbitrary protected post meta insertionCVE-2026-2301 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.3

    The Post Duplicator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized arbitrary protected post meta insertion in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.8. This is due to the `duplicate_post()` function in `includes/api.php` using `$wpdb->insert()` directly to the `wp_postmeta` table instead of WordPress's standard `add_post_meta()` function, which would call `is_protected_meta()` to prevent lower-privileged users from setting protected meta keys (those starting with `_`). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary protected post meta keys such as `_wp_page_template`, `_wp_attached_file`, and other sensitive meta keys on duplicated posts via the `customMetaData` JSON array parameter in the `/wp-json/post-duplicator/v1/duplicate-post` REST API endpoint.

  • Feb 23, 2026ElementsKit Elementor Addons – Advanced Widgets & Templates Addons for Elementor (elementskit-lite) WordPress plugin versions prior to 3.7.9 expose the REST endCVE-2026-23693 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by VulnCheckCritical 9.3

    ElementsKit Elementor Addons – Advanced Widgets & Templates Addons for Elementor (elementskit-lite) WordPress plugin versions prior to 3.7.9 expose the REST endpoint /wp-json/elementskit/v1/widget/mailchimp/subscribe without authentication. The endpoint accepts client-supplied Mailchimp API credentials and insufficiently validates certain parameters, including the list parameter, when constructing upstream Mailchimp API requests. An unauthenticated attacker can abuse the endpoint as an open proxy to Mailchimp, potentially triggering unauthorized API calls, manipulating subscription data, exhausting API quotas, or causing resource consumption on the affected WordPress site.

    What to do
    Update the plugin to the newest version.

    The PostmarkApp Email Integrator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin settings in versions up to, and including, 2.4. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the pma_api_key and pma_sender_address parameters. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the settings page.

  • Feb 19, 2026Virusdie - One-click website security: Sensitive Information ExposureCVE-2025-14864 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.3

    The Virusdie - One-click website security plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.7. This is due to missing capability checks on the `vd_get_apikey` function which is hooked to `wp_ajax_virusdie_apikey`. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to retrieve the site's Virusdie API key, which could be used to access the site owner's Virusdie account and potentially compromise site security.

  • Feb 19, 2026Remove Post Type Slug: Cross-Site Request ForgeryCVE-2025-14167 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.3

    The Remove Post Type Slug plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.2. This is due to incorrect nonce validation logic that uses OR (||) instead of AND (&&), causing the validation to fail when the nonce field is not empty OR when verification fails, rather than when it's empty AND verification fails. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify the plugin's post type slug removal settings via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

    The Web Accessibility by accessiBe plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 2.11. This is due to the `accessibe_render_js_in_footer()` function logging the complete plugin options array to the browser console on public pages, without restricting output to privileged users or checking for debug mode. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to view sensitive configuration data, including email addresses, accessiBe user IDs, account IDs, and license information, via the browser console when the widget is disabled.

  • Feb 18, 2026WP All Export: Sensitive Information ExposureCVE-2026-1582 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceLow 3.7

    The WP All Export plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.14 via the export download endpoint. This is due to a PHP type juggling vulnerability in the security token comparison which uses loose comparison (==) instead of strict comparison (===). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to bypass authentication using "magic hash" values when the expected MD5 hash prefix happens to be numeric-looking (matching pattern ^0e\d+$), allowing download of sensitive export files containing PII, business data, or database information.

    The Blog2Social: Social Media Auto Post & Scheduler plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the b2s_curation_draft AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 8.7.4. The curationDraft() function only verifies current_user_can('read') without checking whether the user has edit_post permission for the target post. Combined with the plugin granting UI access and nonce exposure to all roles, this makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to overwrite the title and content of arbitrary posts and pages by supplying a target post ID via the 'b2s-draft-id' parameter.

  • Feb 18, 2026User Submitted Posts – Enable Users to Submit Posts from the Front End: Incorrect AuthorizationCVE-2026-2126 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.3

    The User Submitted Posts – Enable Users to Submit Posts from the Front End plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization in all versions up to, and including, 20260113. This is due to the `usp_get_submitted_category()` function accepting user-submitted category IDs from the POST body without validating them against the admin-configured allowed categories stored in `usp_options['categories']`. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to assign submitted posts to arbitrary categories, including restricted ones, by crafting a direct POST request with manipulated `user-submitted-category[]` values, bypassing the frontend category restrictions.
