    The Live Composer – Free WordPress Website Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.18 via deserialization of untrusted input . This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-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.

  • Sep 5, 2026Hummingbird – Speed Optimization, Caching, Minify, Compress & CDN: Remote Code ExecutionCVE-2026-83627 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    The Hummingbird – Speed Optimization, Caching, Minify, Compress & CDN plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 3.21.0 via the log_msg() function in core/modules/class-page-cache.php. The page-cache debug log is written to wp-content/wphb-logs/page-caching-log.php, a directly web-accessible PHP file that is supposed to be protected by a leading '<?php die(); ?>' header. That header is guarded by class_exists( 'Filesystem' ), which can never match because class_exists() resolves string arguments in the global namespace while the class is Hummingbird\Core\Filesystem; when the log is created during a front-end request the header is therefore omitted entirely. get_cookies() then writes the raw name of any cookie matching the wphb_cache_ prefix into that file without sanitization. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to write arbitrary PHP into the log file with a single anonymous request and execute it by requesting the file directly, resulting in full remote code execution. Exploitation requires the site administrator to have enabled Page Caching with the Debug Log option (non-default), and the log file to be crea

  • Sep 5, 2026iubenda | All-in-one Compliance for GDPR / CCPA Cookie Consent + more: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-77263 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The iubenda | All-in-one Compliance for GDPR / CCPA Cookie Consent + more plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Content in all versions up to, and including, 3.13.4 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. The exploit works by embedding KSES-allowed markup such as abbr title attributes and HTML comments in a submitted comment so that the global strtr() substitution strips substrings from an inert tag, mutating it into an executable element such as an img onerror handler that runs in the WordPress origin for any visitor, including logged-in administrators.

    The Live Composer – Free WordPress Website Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via dslc_module_projects_output Shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.19 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. WordPress's shortcode-aware kses handling preserves the serialized shortcode body as a placeholder before content filtering runs, allowing attacker-controlled values such as view_all_link, main_heading_link_title, main_filter_title_all, and button_text to reach render-time sinks entirely unescaped.

    The Live Composer – Free WordPress Website Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via dslc_module_testimonials_output Shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.19 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. The injected payload survives save-time wp_kses_post filtering because KSES treats shortcode delimiters as opaque, and the unescaped fields — including main_heading_title, view_all_link, main_heading_link_title, and main_filter_title_all — are only rendered when do_shortcode() executes at page-view time.

    The ERP: Complete HR, Accounting & CRM Suite Built for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Unrestricted File Type Upload in all versions up to, and including, 1.17.8 via the save_attachments() function. This is due to missing file extension validation and missing path normalization when CRM Email Connect processes inbound IMAP email attachments. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to send a crafted email to the site's configured inbound mailbox with a forged References header matching the plugin's expected pattern and an attachment filename such as `../helper.php`, causing the cron-based IMAP sync job to write attacker-controlled PHP outside of the .htaccess-protected `crm-attachments` directory and into `wp-content/uploads/`. On configurations where PHP executes in uploads, this can lead to remote code execution. Exploitation requires the CRM module and IMAP Email Connect feature to be enabled and configured.

    The tagDiv Composer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the vc_raw_html shortcode in all versions up to and including 5.4.5. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the vc_raw_html::render() method, which base64-decodes shortcode content (after a strip_tags() that is bypassed because the encoded payload contains no tags on save) and concatenates the result directly into the page HTML. Because WordPress's save-time wp_kses_post() filter only sees the inert base64 text inside a normal shortcode bracket and does not decode it, the dangerous tags survive into post_content and are emitted unescaped at render time. 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 (for example, when an Editor or Administrator previews the pending post).

    The Subscriptions for WooCommerce WordPress plugin before 2.0.1 does not validate the payment amount or bind the PayPal order token to the order being completed on the WooCommerce order-received flow: it captures a client-supplied token and marks the order paid whenever the capture status is COMPLETED, without comparing the captured amount to the order total. This allows an attacker (unauthenticated where guest checkout is enabled) to substitute an approved, uncaptured PayPal order token and have an expensive order marked paid without paying its price.

    The RegistrationMagic WordPress plugin before 6.0.9.5 does not compare the verified PayPal capture's amount, currency, payee, or prior use against the registration it is finalising: its server-side check only confirms the capture status is COMPLETED. An unauthenticated attacker can therefore finalise an expensive paid registration with any genuinely-completed low-value capture, and replay a single capture across unlimited registrations because captures are not de-duplicated.

  • Aug 6, 2026The official MonsterInsights Pro update distribution bucket (`monster-insights.s3.amazonaws.com`) was compromised.CVE-2026-11976 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WPScanCritical 10

    The official MonsterInsights Pro update distribution bucket (`monster-insights.s3.amazonaws.com`) was compromised. Both the current release (10.2.2) and the version MonsterInsights rolled back to (10.2.0) contain a malicious file, `class-system-check.php`. Three distinct variants were observed on 2026-06-11, all sharing the same AES-256-GCM key, confirming a single threat actor. The attacker retains write access to the S3 bucket and has been actively iterating on the payload throughout the day.

  • Aug 5, 2026Content Egg – Affiliate Product Importer & Price Comparison: Arbitrary File DeletionCVE-2026-15979 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 8.1

    The Content Egg – Affiliate Product Importer & Price Comparison plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Deletion via Path Traversal in versions up to and including 11.3.0. This is due to insufficient validation of the 'img_file' field within the cegg_data post metadata: the value passes only through wp_strip_all_tags() (which does not strip path traversal sequences), is stored directly in post meta, and is later concatenated without normalization into a filesystem path in getFullImgPath() before being passed to PHP's unlink(). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to delete arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.

  • Aug 5, 2026ERP: Complete HR, Accounting & CRM Suite with WooCommerce CRM Support: SQL InjectionCVE-2026-11421 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.5

    The ERP: Complete HR, Accounting & CRM Suite with WooCommerce CRM Support plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'erpadvancefilter' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.17.4 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. The handler runs the value through sanitize_text_field, which preserves single quotes, and the downstream erp_crm_contact_advance_filter() function interpolates it directly into a single-quoted SQL WHERE clause before execution via $wpdb->get_results(). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with the plugin-supplied CRM Agent role (or higher CRM Manager / WordPress admin) and the erp_crm_list_contact capability, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
