  • May 27, 2026Responsive Video Embedder: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-8877 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Responsive Video Embedder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'rem_video' shortcode in versions up to, and including, 0.1. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes (notably 'id' and 'list') in the video_shortcode() function, which are concatenated directly into an HTML iframe's src attribute without 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.

    The Zawgyi Embed plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.1. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the zawgyi_adminpage function.

  • May 2, 2026My Social Feeds – Social Feeds Embedder: Sensitive Information ExposureCVE-2026-6446 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.4

    The My Social Feeds – Social Feeds Embedder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to and including 1.0.4 via the 'ttp_get_accounts' AJAX action. This is due to the complete absence of authorization checks (no capability verification) and nonce verification in the get_accounts() function, which returns the full contents of the 'ttp_tiktok_accounts' WordPress option. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to retrieve sensitive TikTok OAuth credentials, including access_token and refresh_token values, that belong to administrator-connected TikTok accounts, enabling them to impersonate the site owner when interacting with the TikTok API.

  • Mar 18, 2026Code Embed: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-2512 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Code Embed plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via custom field meta values in all versions up to, and including, 2.5.1. This is due to the plugin's sanitization function `sec_check_post_fields()` only running on the `save_post` hook, while WordPress allows custom fields to be added via the `wp_ajax_add_meta` AJAX endpoint without triggering `save_post`. The `ce_filter()` function then outputs these unsanitized meta values directly into page content without 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.

Everything else is the whole National Vulnerability Database, where each record is published by the team that found the bug (Wordfence, Patchstack, WPScan, the vendors themselves and others); we show who. Exploit odds are FIRST’s EPSS, updated daily. Titles and categories are ours, so check the linked record before acting on a detail. For a write-up of the big ones, see our advisories.
