Aug 22, 2026Post Duplicator: Unauthorized modification of dataCVE-2026-4244 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.3
The Post Duplicator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the `duplicate_post()` function in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.11. This is due to the function not verifying that the user has `edit_others_posts` capability before accepting a `selectedAuthorId` parameter via the `duplicate-post` REST endpoint. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to create duplicated posts attributed to any user, including administrators.

Aug 22, 2026Post Duplicator: Authorization bypassCVE-2026-4245 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.3
The Post Duplicator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.11. This is due to the `duplicate_post_permissions()` permission callback only verifying the `duplicate_posts` capability without checking whether the requesting user holds `publish_posts` or other status-gated capabilities. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to create duplicate posts with `future` (scheduled, auto-publishes) or `private` status, bypassing editorial review. Additionally, the REST endpoint does not enforce administrator-configured post-type duplication restrictions, allowing duplication of post types that have been explicitly disabled.

Aug 21, 2026WPForms Pro: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-18409 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2
The WPForms Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Single Line Text and Paragraph Text Field Values in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.0.2 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 relies on the plugin's own wp_kses_allowed_html filter widening the 'post' allowlist to permit iframe elements with a data-src attribute, which is not on WordPress's URI-attribute sanitization list, allowing a javascript: URI stored in data-src to survive kses processing and subsequently be promoted to a live src attribute by the bundled admin script view-entry.min.js.

Aug 19, 2026TranslatePress – Translate Multilingual sites with AI Translation: Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-75981 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2
The TranslatePress – Translate Multilingual sites with AI Translation plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to and including 3.2.5. The special gettext markers '#!trpst#' and '#!trpen#' are unconditionally rewritten to '<' and '>' by translate_page() in includes/class-translation-render.php (lines 538-539). Because those markers are plain text with no HTML-special characters, an unauthenticated attacker can embed them in a comment; the markers survive wp_kses, and when the post is viewed in a secondary language the substitution turns the attacker's '#!trpst#img ... #!trpen#' into a real <img> tag. remove_tags_from_output() only strips <script>/<style>, so an <img onerror=...> executes in the visitor's browser.

The WP Statistics – Simple, privacy-friendly Google Analytics alternative plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'utm_campaign' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 14.16.8 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 payload can be planted without authentication via the public /wp-statistics/v2/hit REST endpoint, because the required signature is exposed on the public homepage and a base64-encoded page_uri POST parameter overrides the previously sanitized REQUEST_URI, allowing the malicious utm_campaign value to bypass sanitization and be stored in the database.

Aug 19, 2026EWWW Image Optimizer: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-15446 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4
The EWWW Image Optimizer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'data-script' Lazy Load Attribute in Post Content in all versions up to, and including, 8.7.3 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 exploit is achieved by embedding a crafted img element with class='lazyload' and a data-script attribute pointing to an attacker-controlled URL in post content, which the plugin's bundled lazysizes ls.unveilhooks addon then uses to dynamically create and insert a script element into the DOM at page view time.
