    The Persian Elementor (المنتور فارسی) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Price Manipulation in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.1. This is due to the plugin trusting a user-supplied payment amount without server-side validation against the configured ZarinPal widget price. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to submit arbitrary payment amounts to the ZarinPal gateway via the 'amount' parameter.

  • Jul 29, 2026Booking System Trafft: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-8791 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    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).

This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This requires the GTM4WP WooCommerce order data integration option (GTM4WP_OPTION_INTEGRATE_WCORDERDATA) to be enabled, and is exploited by placing a guest checkout order with a JavaScript payload in a WooCommerce billing field such as the billing first name.

  • Jul 29, 2026Cost Calculator Builder PRO: Remote Code ExecutionCVE-2026-14900 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    The Cost Calculator Builder PRO plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 4.0.3 via the js_to_php function. This is due to insufficient sanitization of the orderDetails[*].originalValue field, which is injected verbatim into a calculator formula string passed to PHP eval() inside js_to_php(), with the regex allow-list in evaluateFormula() only filtering alphanumeric tokens and leaving non-word punctuation characters intact. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute code on the server. The only authentication barrier is a nonce check, but the required nonce is publicly emitted on every front-end page via the wp_head hook, making it freely obtainable by unauthenticated visitors. Payloads must be non-word XOR gadgets to bypass sanitization.

  • Jul 29, 2026Database for CF7: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-13425 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The Database for CF7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Array Form Field Values in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.6 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. This is exploitable by unauthenticated attackers because Contact Form 7 accepts array-structured input for ordinary text fields (e.g., your-name[]) via the public REST API endpoint /wp-json/contact-form-7/v1/contact-forms/{id}/feedback, and the plugin stores submitted data using $wpdb INSERT with serialize() into a custom wp_cf7db table, bypassing WordPress save-time filtering via wp_insert_post/wp_kses.

    The WowStore – Store Builder & Product Blocks for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'filterMobileText' Block Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 4.4.24 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 save-time wp_kses_post sanitization is ineffective because the payload is stored inside a Gutenberg block delimiter comment as JSON, which wp_kses_post preserves, allowing an attribute-breakout string to survive to the server-side render_callback.

    The StoreGrowth: Smart Sales Booster for WooCommerce | BOGO, Upsells, Direct Checkout, Quick View, Side Cart plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.0. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to overwrite the spsg_popup_products option with arbitrary attacker-controlled data. The 'ajd_protected' nonce used as the sole gate is exposed to unauthenticated visitors on every frontend page through the BoGo module's wp_localize_script call, rendering it ineffective as an authorization barrier.

  • Jul 28, 2026ShopLentor – All-in-One WooCommerce Growth & Store Enhancement: Insecure Direct Object ReferenceCVE-2026-16797 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.3

    The ShopLentor – All-in-One WooCommerce Growth & Store Enhancement Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 3.4.5 via the 'optionSection' parameter due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to read arbitrary wp_options rows — including internal plugin news feed data, WooCommerce block pattern transients, and third-party configuration records — whose values are stored as arrays-of-arrays containing 'title' keys, enabling cross-plugin data leakage.

  • Jul 28, 2026Demi – One Click Demo Import, WP Backup & Site Migration: Arbitrary Directory CopyCVE-2026-15012 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.3

    The Demi – One Click Demo Import, WP Backup & Site Migration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary Directory Copy in all versions up to, and including, 0.0.8 via the handle_restore_step function. This is due to missing HTTP access controls on the wp-content/uploads/demi-backup-state/ directory, which exposes the cryptographic restore key used to both authenticate the unauthenticated AJAX handler and forge signed restore-state envelopes. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to copy arbitrary files to attacker-controlled destinations on the server. An active restore operation must have been initiated, which writes the .restore_key and .restore_step_token files to the public upload directory, before the exposed secrets can be harvested and chained to achieve unauthenticated arbitrary file copy.

  • Jul 28, 2026Demi – One Click Demo Import, WP Backup & Site Migration: Arbitrary Directory DeletionCVE-2026-14490 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.5

    The Demi – One Click Demo Import, WP Backup & Site Migration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary Directory Deletion in all versions up to, and including, 0.0.7. The vulnerability exists because the plugin stores its HMAC signing key and per-step restore token as dotfiles inside a publicly accessible subdirectory of the WordPress uploads folder — without any `.htaccess` or index file protection — and the `demi_restore_step` AJAX handler, registered for unauthenticated callers, explicitly accepts possession of the on-disk signing key as a standalone alternative to WordPress capability and nonce checks; an unauthenticated attacker who retrieves the exposed key can forge a valid signed state envelope to invoke `CleanDir::execute()` with a caller-supplied absolute path that is subject to no allow-list or path-canonicalization check. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to recursively delete arbitrary directories on the server.
