  • Oct 2, 2026WPMobile.App – Android and iOS App Builder: Authorization bypassCVE-2026-94541 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    The WPMobile.App – Android and iOS App Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 11.82 This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to exfiltrate password-reset URLs for arbitrary users, including administrators, mirrored into the push queue by the mail-to-push feature, and use those URLs to take over the targeted accounts. This exploit chain requires the plugin's mail-to-push feature (wpmobile_auto_mail=1) to be enabled, as that setting is what causes outbound WordPress password-reset emails — including the reset URL and key — to be mirrored into the push row queue where they become accessible to the attacker.

    The W3 Total Cache plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Content via Output-Buffer Regex Rewrite in all versions up to, and including, 2.10.6 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 only exploitable when the 'Remove query strings from static resources' option is enabled in W3 Total Cache, as mutate_url() must strip the '?' delimiter and everything following it — including the closing quote of the outer attribute — to break the attribute boundary.

    The Customer Reviews for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Author Name in all versions up to, and including, 5.122.0 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 requires the image attachment feature (ivole_attach_image) to be enabled, which allows unauthenticated attackers to both submit a review with an entity-encoded malicious author name and upload an attached image via the publicly accessible wp_ajax_nopriv_cr_upload_local_images_frontend endpoint.

    The Relevanssi – A Better Search plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Content in all versions up to, and including, 4.28.3 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 is only exploitable when the administrator has configured a non-empty value for the "Allowable tags in excerpts" setting, such as the default example value of <p><a><strong>, as the prefix-matching regex must have an allowable tag whose name is a prefix of the injected tag name.

    The Download Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Display Name in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.70 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This requires the [wpdm_edit_profile] shortcode to be present on a front-end page accessible to Subscriber-level users, who can then submit a multiply entity-encoded payload via the display name field to bypass sanitization.

    The CMB2 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'file_list' Field Type in all versions up to, and including, 2.13.0 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 is only exploitable when an integrating plugin or theme registers a file_list field on a publicly accessible front-end form or a user meta box, as CMB2 is a developer library and does not expose these fields by default.

    The Listdom: AI-powered Business Directory with Classifieds Ads Listings plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'lsd[remark]' Parameter in all versions up to, and including, 6.1.1 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. This is exploitable by Subscriber-level users because the listing-creation branch of the AJAX handler omits a capability check, and the required nonce is publicly emitted on any page containing the [listdom-dashboard] shortcode.

    The GSpeech TTS – WordPress Text To Speech Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Content in all versions up to, and including, 3.22.0 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 mXSS-style transform bypasses WordPress comment kses sanitization because the payload is stored using only kses-allowed tags and attributes; the malicious event handlers and style fragments become active only when the plugin's output-buffer callback rewrites the rendered HTML at request time.

    The MW WP Form plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'post_id' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.7 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. The CSRF gate protecting form submission (MW_WP_Form_Csrf) is bypassable by any unauthenticated visitor who first loads the public form page to obtain a valid double-submit cookie, leaving no effective barrier to storing malicious payloads.

    The Newsletter – Send awesome emails from WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'np1' Custom Field Parameter in all versions up to, and including, 9.4.0 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. The subscription endpoint (na=sa) requires no nonce, no capability check, and no CAPTCHA, and the payload can be smuggled past email-address validation by embedding the {profile_1} placeholder in the local part of the submitted address, since WordPress's is_email() permits curly braces there.

    The DoFollow Case by Case plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Content in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.0 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. Comment moderation delays but does not prevent exploitation — once an administrator approves the visually innocuous comment, the stored payload executes in the browser of every subsequent visitor to the affected post.

    The Greenshift – animation and page builder blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via '{{GET:}}' Dynamic Placeholder in all versions up to, and including, 13.2.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. This requires a site administrator to have configured an element block's Custom JS field to include a {{GET:...}} placeholder and for that JS to contain the token 'import', which routes the substituted value to the unescaped raw echo branch inside a <script type="module"> tag.

    The Smash Balloon Social Post Feed – Simple Social Feeds for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Facebook Comment Message via v-html in Admin Builder Preview in all versions up to, and including, 4.13.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts that will execute whenever an administrator accesses the feed builder preview page. This attack requires only a Facebook account to post a comment on the connected Facebook Page, with no WordPress credentials needed; additionally, the use of v-show rather than v-if means injected HTML — including onerror handlers — is evaluated in the DOM even when the comment section is not visually displayed. When combined with the lack of URL validation in the cff_install_addon AJAX handler (admin/addon-functions.php), an injected script running in an administrator's session can trigger arbitrary plugin installation from an attacker-controlled URL, which may result in server-side code execution.

    The Relevanssi Premium plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the '_rt' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.31.4 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 requires the click-tracking and logging feature to be activated in the plugin settings, and exploitation is trivially accessible to unauthenticated users because a valid _rt_nonce is publicly emitted on every search-results page.

    The CMB2 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the '<textarea_code field id> (e.g. kl_code, kl_post_code)' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.13.1 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. The front-end save path requires only a CMB2 box nonce, which is emitted to all visitors including unauthenticated guests via a simple GET request, making the attack trivially reachable without any credentials on sites that expose a public CMB2 form writing a textarea_code field.

    The Otter Blocks – Gutenberg Blocks, Page Builder for Gutenberg Editor & FSE plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.6 via the 'otter_form_widget_filter' parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to extract the email addresses of the five most recent form submitters, their submission dates, and the site's total form submission count. The widget is registered whenever the themeisle_blocks_form_emails option is non-empty — the normal state after any Form block has been saved — meaning the exposure is active on any standard site using the plugin's form feature.

    The Popup Maker WP WordPress plugin through 1.4.5 does not perform authorization checks on several of its actions and exposes its management page to any logged-in user, allowing users with a low-privileged role such as Subscriber to store display-targeting values that are later invoked as zero-argument PHP callables on public page loads, leading to sensitive information disclosure and denial of service.

  • Oct 2, 2026BA Book Everything: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-102565 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The BA Book Everything plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'booking_service_qty' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.28 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 that an administrator or other privileged user opens the injected order record in the plugin's wp-admin order management area, which is the plugin's ordinary order-review workflow.

    The Avada | Website Builder For WordPress & WooCommerce theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'lang' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 7.16.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. The injected value is propagated through Fusion_Multilingual::set_active_language() and concatenated into a URL by Fusion_Settings::get_setting_link() without applying urlencode(), esc_url(), or esc_attr() before being echoed raw into a double-quoted href attribute in the post editor metabox.

This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Exploitation requires an administrator to have enabled Autoptimize's 'Lazy-load images?' option, the w3-total-cache/w3-total-cache.php file to be present on disk with the plugin disabled, a class named Minify_HTML to be loaded into scope by another plugin, and the malicious comment to be approved by a moderator before the payload renders.

    The Visitors Traffic Real Time Statistics Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthenticated stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 11.22 via the page_title parameter of the ahcpro_track_visitor AJAX action. The action is registered for logged-out callers (wp_ajax_nopriv_ahcpro_track_visitor) and stores $_POST['page_title'] with NO sanitization, keeping it raw in the ahc_title_traffic.til_page_title column. When an administrator opens the plugin's dashboard, the 'Traffic by Title' DataTable renders that stored value as innerHTML without output escaping, executing arbitrary JavaScript. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject web scripts that run in an administrator's session.

    The Prime Mover plugin for WordPress before 2.2.1 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript by injecting an unescaped site_title value in a package's footprint.json file. Attackers can place a crafted package under the prime-mover-export-files directory so that the malicious value renders unescaped in the column_site_title() method of PrimeMoverBackupMenuListTable.php, triggering script execution in an administrator's browser when they view the Prime Mover Packages list table without needing to restore the package.
