Aug 30, 2026MyHome Core: Authentication BypassCVE-2026-15980 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8
The MyHome Core plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in all versions up to, and including, 4.4.5. This is due to missing authorization in the send_link() AJAX handler and improper token validation in the activate() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to generate an activation token for an unconfirmed user account and obtain a valid authentication cookie for that account, including administrators. Successful exploitation requires the MyHome theme to be configured in legacy/WPBakery mode with frontend registration and confirmation email enabled, and the target account must not already have the myhome_agent_confirmed user meta set.

Aug 29, 2026Custom User Registration Fields for WooCommerce: Privilege EscalationCVE-2026-15369 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8
The Custom User Registration Fields for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in versions up to, and including, 2.2.3. This is due to the plugin accepting an attacker-controlled afreg_select_user_role value from the unauthenticated WooCommerce Store API /wc/store/v1/checkout request in the af_reg_checkout_data_to_order_meta_data_block() function, persisting it in order meta, and then passing it directly to WP_User::add_role() in the af_reg_custom_order_processing_function() function (hooked to woocommerce_thankyou) without validating against the plugin's admin-configured allowed role list. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to elevate their privileges to Administrator by creating an account during checkout with a modified JSON body specifying administrator (or any other role slug) as the desired role. Note: The exploit requires the "User Role Selection" setting to be enabled.

Aug 29, 2026SAML Single Sign On – SSO Login: Authentication BypassCVE-2026-75807 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.5
The SAML Single Sign On – SSO Login plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in versions up to, and including, 5.4.6. This is due to the mo_saml_login_validate() ACS handler persisting the X.509 certificate extracted from an incoming SAMLResponse into the mo_saml_required_certificate option before the signature-validation verdict is enforced, because mo_saml_find_certificate() returns false on a fingerprint mismatch rather than halting execution. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to overwrite the plugin's stored IdP signing certificate with an attacker-controlled value, and subsequently forge SAML assertions for any WordPress account — including administrators — to obtain a fully privileged session. Note: The exploit requires the administrator to perform a repair after receiving the test_config_error_wpsamlerr004 error message during the test configuration.

Aug 29, 2026Sigma Forms Pro: Remote Code ExecutionCVE-2026-14494 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8
The Sigma Forms Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.5 via the handle_form_submission function. This is due to the plugin dynamically granting the unfiltered_upload capability to all users during form submissions and bypassing MIME type validation when allowed_file_types is not configured. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute code on the server. Several default pre-built templates including Job Application, Support Ticket, and Wholesale Application have file upload fields with no file type restrictions configured by design, making this vulnerability immediately exploitable upon installation.

The Stripe Payment Forms by WP Full Pay WordPress plugin before 8.5.5 does not verify that a subscription belongs to the customer bound to the requesting customer-portal session before cancelling it, allowing a user with a confirmed portal session to cancel subscriptions belonging to other customers.

Aug 28, 2026All-in-One WP Migration Unlimited Extension: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-6128 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4
The All-in-One WP Migration Unlimited Extension plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'ai1wm_backups_path' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.84. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes combined with missing authorization checks on the settings() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever an administrator accesses the plugin settings page. The vulnerability was partially patched in version 2.84.

Aug 28, 2026GiveWP – Donation Plugin and Fundraising Platform: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-5510 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4
The GiveWP – Donation Plugin and Fundraising Platform plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'give_form' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 4.14.4. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the continue_button_title and display_style shortcode attributes, which are passed through sanitize_text_field() but not properly escaped when output in HTML data attributes. 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.

Aug 28, 2026WPMU DEV Dashboard: Authentication BypassCVE-2026-76581 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8
The WPMU DEV Dashboard plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.1. This is due to inconsistent and ambiguous HMAC message construction between the unauthenticated `wdpsso_step1` and `wdpsso_step2` AJAX actions, where step 1 signs and discloses an unseparated concatenation of the token, state, redirect, and domain values, while step 2 verifies an unseparated concatenation that omits the domain field. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers, on sites connected to WPMU DEV with Hub SSO enabled and mapped to an administrator, to obtain a valid HMAC from step 1 and replay it to step 2 by moving the domain value into the redirect field, resulting in an authenticated administrator session.

The Ultimate Member WordPress plugin before 2.13.0 does not validate a submitted role selection when it cannot resolve the set of roles a profile form permits, and screens the value against the site's registered role names rather than against the form's own allow-list, allowing unauthenticated users who register through the Ultimate Member WordPress plugin before 2.13.0's own form to grant themselves arbitrary capabilities and reach administrator-equivalent access.
