  • Sep 18, 2026Jeg Kit for Elementor – Powerful Addons for Elementor, Widgets & Templates for: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-18405 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The Jeg Kit for Elementor – Powerful Addons for Elementor, Widgets & Templates for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Content in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.16 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 the targeted post also renders a legitimate Jeg Kit Countdown widget, which causes the countdown frontend script to be enqueued and to initialize on any matching DOM element — including forged widget markup stored in comments.

    The Popup Maker – Boost Sales, Conversions, Optins, Subscribers with the Ultimate WP Popup Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via post_title in all versions up to, and including, 1.24.0 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 requires the attacker to create a post with an HTML entity-encoded payload in the title, which bypasses sanitize_text_field on save and is later decoded and executed by the browser when rendered by the Select2 component.

    The Master Addons for Elementor – Elementor Addons, Widgets, Mega Menu Builder, Popup Builder, Widget Builder & Template Kits plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.2. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to modify the title and metadata of arbitrary WordPress posts or permanently delete arbitrary WordPress posts by supplying an attacker-controlled popup_id. The required nonce is emitted on the edit-jltma_popup admin screen, which is accessible to Contributors because the jltma_popup custom post type is registered with capability_type='post'.

    The ShopLentor – All-in-One WooCommerce Growth & Store Enhancement Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via Query-String Parameter Name in all versions up to, and including, 3.5.1 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 vulnerability is triggered via the WL: Product Horizontal Filter widget, which reflects attacker-supplied query-string parameter names from the current URL into option element value attributes without escaping, allowing payload breakout from the value="..." attribute context.

    The Qi Addons For Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 's' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.11 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. Exploitation requires the Table of Contents widget to be placed on a template that renders on the WordPress search-results page (e.g., a sitewide header or footer template) with the 'Limit ToC to Main Page Content' option left at its default value of No, so the widget scans the search-results heading that reflects the unsanitized `s` parameter.

    The Newsletter – Send awesome emails from WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'nn' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 9.3.8 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. Successful exploitation requires the victim to be a logged-in administrator, as the antibot check auto-passes for authenticated users, routing the unsanitized payload through the administrator-visible output branch of dienow().

  • Sep 18, 2026Photo Gallery by 10Web – Mobile-Friendly Image Gallery: Time-based SQL InjectionCVE-2026-85652 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.5

    The Photo Gallery by 10Web – Mobile-Friendly Image Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via 'album_id' Shortcode Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.44 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. An Author-level user can store a SQL injection payload inside a published post's shortcode attribute, causing the payload to execute when any visitor renders the post; notably, the unsanitized value appears on both sides of a UNION query, potentially doubling the observable time-based delay.

    The LatePoint – Calendar Booking Plugin for Appointments and Events plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 5.6.3 via the LatePointAbilityDeleteBooking::execute due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for attackers, with LatePoint Agent-level access and above, to read bookings and customer PII (full name, email, phone, and notes) assigned to other LatePoint agents, and delete arbitrary bookings by supplying any booking ID. This vulnerability is only exploitable when an administrator has enabled the Abilities API toggles (latepoint_abilities_api, latepoint_abilities_api_delete, and/or latepoint_abilities_api_edit) in the plugin settings.

  • Sep 18, 2026Booking Calendar: Privilege EscalationCVE-2026-92619 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The Booking Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 11.8.2 via the `wpbc_ajax_option_save` AJAX action. The vulnerability exists because the `handle_ajax_save()` function applies per-option safeguards only to names explicitly registered via `register_option_policy()`, causing `get_option_policy()` to return an empty policy — bypassing all can_save, force_mode, and allowed_keys checks — for any unregistered option name, including core WordPress options, while an attacker-controlled `data_name` parameter passes through `sanitize_key()` and is written directly to `update_option()` without restriction. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with Editor-level access and above to escalate their privileges to Administrator by writing core WordPress options such as `default_role=administrator` and `users_can_register=1`, then self-registering a new Administrator account. The nonce check does not meaningfully restrict this attack, as both the nonce value and nonce action are attacker-supplied POST parameters, and a valid nonce is trivially obtainable via `admin-ajax.php?action=rest-nonce`.

    The Booking Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'options' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 11.8.2 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 nonce check is bypassed by default because the 'booking_is_nonce_at_front_end' option ships disabled, allowing unauthenticated requests to reach the vulnerable sink without any verification.

    The Filter Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.4. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to delete any arbitrary Filter Gallery records — including all associated filters, image mappings, settings, and details options — by supplying attacker-controlled gallery IDs. The nonce bypass requires omitting the nonce POST field entirely rather than submitting an invalid value, as a present-but-invalid nonce is correctly rejected.

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 is a regression: the esc_url() wrapper that remediated the equivalent CVE-2023-5749 in version 3.9.2 was removed in version 4.3.0 during a refactor that introduced the 'unique' parameter.

    The RT Mega Menu – Mega Menu Builder for Elementor & Gutenberg plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'pointer_menu_item' Block Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 1.5.2 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 payload bypasses wp_kses_post filtering applied to post content on save because it contains no HTML tags and survives intact inside the block comment's JSON attributes, reaching the walker unescaped at render time.

    The Booking for Appointments and Events Calendar – Amelia plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access and modification of data due to a missing ownership verification on /users/customers/<id> endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.4.

  • Sep 17, 2026Faust.js is a headless WordPress toolkit.CVE-2026-54239 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by GitHubHigh 8.8

    Faust.js is a headless WordPress toolkit. Prior to 1.8.11, the FaustWP WordPress plugin authenticates only the ciphertext in its token envelope and excludes the 16-byte initialization vector from the HMAC in WPE\FaustWP\Auth\encrypt() and WPE\FaustWP\Auth\decrypt() in plugins/faustwp/includes/auth/functions.php. A logged-in non-administrator who obtains an authorization code from GET /generate can modify the unauthenticated initialization vector so that CBC decryption changes the token type and user identifier while the HMAC remains valid. This can produce an access token for an Administrator and permit full WordPress REST API access, administrator-account creation, plugin installation, and arbitrary code execution. This issue is fixed in repository version 1.8.11.

    What to do
    Update the plugin to the newest version.
