  • Apr 14, 2026Smart Post Show – Post Grid, Post Carousel & Slider, and List Category Posts: PHP Object InjectionCVE-2026-3017 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The Smart Post Show – Post Grid, Post Carousel & Slider, and List Category Posts plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.12 via deserialization of untrusted input in the import_shortcodes() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, 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.

    The Surbma | Booking.com Shortcode plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's `surbma-bookingcom` shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 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 10, 2026Optimole – Optimize Images | Convert WebP & AVIF | CDN & Lazy Load | Image Optimization: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-5217 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The Optimole – Optimize Images | Convert WebP & AVIF | CDN & Lazy Load | Image Optimization plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 4.2.2. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the user-supplied 's' parameter (srcset descriptor) in the unauthenticated /wp-json/optimole/v1/optimizations REST endpoint. The endpoint validates requests using an HMAC signature and timestamp, but these values are exposed directly in the frontend HTML making them accessible to any visitor. The plugin uses sanitize_text_field() on the descriptor value of rest.php, which strips HTML tags but does not escape double quotes. The poisoned descriptor is then stored via transients (backed by the WordPress options table) and later retrieved and injected verbatim into the srcset attribute of tag_replacer.php without proper escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the injected page.

    Smart Slider 3 Pro version 3.5.1.35 for WordPress and Joomla contains a multi-stage remote access toolkit injected through a compromised update system that allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code and commands. Attackers can trigger pre-authentication remote shell execution via HTTP headers, establish authenticated backdoors accepting arbitrary PHP code or OS commands, create hidden administrator accounts, exfiltrate credentials and access keys, and maintain persistence through multiple injection points including must-use plugins and core file modifications.

  • Apr 9, 2026Experto Dashboard for WooCommerce: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-3574 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.4

    The Experto Dashboard for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's settings fields (including 'Navigation Font Size', 'Navigation Font Weight', 'Heading Font Size', 'Heading Font Weight', 'Text Font Size', and 'Text Font Weight') in all versions up to and including 1.0.4. This is due to insufficient input sanitization (no sanitize callback in register_setting()) and missing output escaping (no esc_attr() in the field_callback() printf output) on user-supplied values. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in the plugin settings page that will execute whenever a user accesses the settings page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.

  • Apr 8, 2026Vertex Addons for Elementor: Missing AuthorizationCVE-2026-4326 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 8.8

    The Vertex Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to and including 1.6.4. This is due to improper authorization enforcement in the activate_required_plugins() function. Specifically, the current_user_can('install_plugins') capability check does not terminate execution when it fails — it only sets an error message variable while allowing the plugin installation and activation code to execute. The error response is only sent after the installation and activation have already completed. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to install and activate arbitrary plugins from the WordPress.

  • Mar 26, 2026JS Help Desk – AI-Powered Support & Ticketing System: SQL InjectionCVE-2026-2511 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.5

    The JS Help Desk – AI-Powered Support & Ticketing System plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the `multiformid` parameter in the `storeTickets()` function in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.4. This is due to the user-supplied `multiformid` value being passed to `esc_sql()` without enclosing the result in quotes in the SQL query, rendering the escaping ineffective against payloads that do not contain quote characters. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

    The Responsive Plus WordPress plugin before 3.4.3 is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution due to the software allowing unauthenticated users to execute the update_responsive_woo_free_shipping_left_shortcode AJAX action that does not properly validate the content_rech_data parameter before processing it as a shortcode.

  • Mar 26, 2026ShortPixel Image Optimizer: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-4335 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.4

    The ShortPixel Image Optimizer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the attachment post_title in all versions up to, and including, 6.4.3. This is due to insufficient output escaping in the getEditorPopup() function and its corresponding media-popup.php template. Specifically, the attachment's post_title is retrieved from the database via get_post() in AjaxController.php (line 435) and passed directly to the view template (line 449), where it is rendered into an HTML input element's value attribute without esc_attr() escaping (media-popup.php line 139). Since WordPress allows Authors to set arbitrary attachment titles (including double-quote characters) via the REST API, a malicious author can craft an attachment title that breaks out of the HTML attribute and injects arbitrary JavaScript event handlers. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute whenever a higher-privileged user (such as an administrator) opens the ShortPixel AI editor popup (Background Removal or Image Upscale) for the poisoned attachment.
