  • Aug 1, 2026GamiPress – Gamification plugin to reward points, achievements, badges & ranks in: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-16090 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The GamiPress – Gamification plugin to reward points, achievements, badges & ranks in WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'heading_size' Shortcode Attribute in 'gamipress_achievement' in all versions up to, and including, 7.9.9.1 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. WordPress save-time wp_kses_post does not neutralize this payload because the injected value is stored inside a shortcode attribute rather than as a raw HTML tag, and is only emitted into HTML at render time without escaping.

  • Jul 31, 2026Subscriptions for WooCommerce: Privilege EscalationCVE-2026-15414 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 8.8

    The Subscriptions for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in versions up to, and including, 2.0.0. This is due to the `save_meta_boxes()` function persisting the `_wps_plan_user_role` membership plan meta from `$_POST` without an allowlist that excludes privileged roles — the only validations applied, `sanitize_key()` and `wp_roles()->is_role()`, both accept `'administrator'` as a valid value, and the UI's `disabled` attribute on the role dropdown is a client-side-only control trivially bypassed via DevTools or a direct POST request; additionally, because the `wps_membership_plan` custom post type is registered with `capability_type => 'post'`, any user who can edit posts satisfies the `current_user_can('edit_post', $post_id)` guard in `save_meta_boxes()`. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to escalate their privileges to Administrator by storing `'administrator'` as the role granted on membership acquisition, which the Pro companion plugin then applies via `add_role()` during membership lifecycle events. Successful exploitation requires the Subscriptions for WooCommerce Pro companion plugi

    The SendPulse Email Marketing Newsletter plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via _sp_form_code Post Meta in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.5 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. Exploitation requires the attacker to create a sendpulse_form post containing a benign SendPulse loader script tag alongside arbitrary HTML (e.g., an img onerror payload), which bypasses the allow-list check and executes in the browser of any user — including administrators — who previews or views a page rendering the [sendpulse-form] shortcode.

  • Jul 31, 2026WP Photo Album Plus is vulnerable to stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 9.2.03.001 through a decode-after-sanitize (double-encodiCVE-2026-14922 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WPScanMedium 6.1

    WP Photo Album Plus is vulnerable to stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 9.2.03.001 through a decode-after-sanitize (double-encoding) flaw in the photo-comment pipeline. On write, `wppa_do_comment()` sanitizes the comment with `wppa_filter_html()` (wp_kses) followed by `wp_strip_all_tags()` (`wppa-functions.php:2623-2624`). Because `wp_strip_all_tags()` only removes *real* tags, an attacker who submits a **double HTML-entity-encoded** payload (e.g. `<img src=... onload=...>`) passes the write filters as harmless entity text and is stored one decode-level down (`<img ... onload=...>`).

    The Subscriptions for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.0. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action via the wps_sfw_install_plugin_configuration AJAX handler.

    The Booking System Trafft plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the `bookingWebsiteUrl` setting in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.17 due to a missing capability check on the `set_options` AJAX action when the plugin is operating in agency mode. The `trafftSetOptions()` handler verifies a nonce that is exposed to any authenticated user (it is printed inline on every admin page, including profile.php) but performs no capability check before calling `update_option('trafft_option', ['bookingWebsiteUrl' => ...])`. This setting is then used by `trafftAdminAssets()` to enqueue `<bookingWebsiteUrl>/embed.js` as a script on every front-end page that renders the booking shortcode. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to point the embed-script URL at an attacker-controlled origin and execute arbitrary JavaScript in the browser of every site visitor (including admins).

  • Jul 28, 2026StoreGrowth: Smart Sales Booster for WooCommerce | BOGO, Upsells, Direct Checkout, Quick View, Side Cart: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-13440 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The StoreGrowth: Smart Sales Booster for WooCommerce | BOGO, Upsells, Direct Checkout, Quick View, Side Cart plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'message_popup' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.0 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 exploit is possible because the 'ajd_protected' nonce required by the create_popup handler is exposed to all unauthenticated frontend visitors via wp_localize_script under bogo_save_url.ajd_nonce, effectively bypassing the nonce-only access control.

  • Jul 28, 2026GamiPress – Gamification plugin to reward points, achievements, badges & ranks in: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-15730 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The GamiPress – Gamification plugin to reward points, achievements, badges & ranks in WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'heading_size' Shortcode Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 7.9.9.1 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. The wp_kses_post filter applied at post save does not neutralize this payload because only the inert shortcode text is stored in post_content; the dangerous HTML is synthesized at render time by the shortcode handler, entirely bypassing save-time sanitization.

Where this comes from: the exploited list is CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. 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. Every vendor, and every WordPress plugin and theme with a recorded flaw, also has its own page. All of it is free to reuse as JSON, CSV or RSS.
