    The Temporary Login Without Password WordPress plugin before 1.9.9 does not prevent a temporary user from creating an Application Password, and does not revoke one when the temporary access expires or is disabled, allowing the recipient of a temporary login to retain working access to the site over REST and XML-RPC after the administrator believes it has been withdrawn.

  • Sep 11, 2026GamiPress: Authenticated (Subscriber+) SQL InjectionCVE-2026-15439 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.5

    The GamiPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authenticated (Subscriber+) SQL Injection via the 'q' parameter of the wpForo integration AJAX selector (action gamipress_wpforo_get_posts) in versions up to, and including, 7.9.7. The value is passed only through $wpdb->esc_like() and interpolated directly into a single-quoted LIKE clause with no %s placeholder. Because esc_like() runs after WordPress core magic quotes, it doubles the injected backslash (\' -> \\'), which MySQL reads as one literal backslash followed by a live closing quote, allowing the attacker to break out of the string and inject boolean-based SQL. The wpForo plugin only needs to be active to register the callback; no wpForo vulnerability is used. Requires a Subscriber account, which can read the gamipress_admin nonce (exposed on every admin page, e.g. /wp-admin/profile.php). Note: the researcher's Simple:Press vectors (PoC 2 & 3) do not reproduce in current code, which uses $wpdb->prepare() with %s placeholders; only the wpForo selector is confirmed.

  • Sep 11, 2026Media Library Assistant: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-6642 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Media Library Assistant plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the bulk edit preset export/import mechanism in versions up to and including 3.35. This is due to insufficient output escaping on preset field values when they are rendered in HTML attribute contexts in the mla_generate_bulk_edit_form_fieldsets() function and mla-bulk-edit-fieldsets.tpl template. While wp_kses() filtering is applied during preset export for users without unfiltered_html capability, this does not prevent attribute injection attacks since the malicious payload consists of quotes and HTML attributes rather than HTML tags. When preset values are retrieved and rendered, they are directly assigned to template variables without esc_attr() escaping and then inserted into input element value attributes via simple string replacement. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above (upload_files capability), to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute when an administrator imports the poisoned preset and the targeted input field receives focus.

    The Media Library Assistant plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'mla_gallery' shortcode in versions up to and including 3.35. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the mla_link_href parameter when mla_output is set to 'paginate_links', where the _paginate_links() function processes the value through mla_process_shortcode_parameter() and _replace_query_parameter() without proper URL escaping, then outputs it directly in href attributes without applying esc_url(). 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.
