  • Sep 19, 2026WP Ghost (Hide My WP Ghost) – Security & Firewall: Open RedirectCVE-2026-7527 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.7

    The WP Ghost (Hide My WP Ghost) – Security & Firewall plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Open Redirect in all versions up to, and including, 7.0.02. This is due to the plugin not properly validating user input. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to redirect users to potentially malicious sites if they can successfully trick them into clicking on a specially crafted link. Exploitation requires tricking a logged-in user into clicking a crafted logout URL; the victim is fully logged out via wp_logout() before the malicious redirect is issued, making the logout irreversible as part of the attack chain.

    Really Simple Security plugin for WordPress before 9.8.2 contains a missing authorization check vulnerability that allows authenticated low-privileged attackers to bypass enforced two-factor authentication indefinitely by exploiting an unguarded code path in the profile-page update handler. Attackers can submit a crafted POST request without the two-factor-authentication field to skip nonce verification and trigger delete_two_fa_meta(), which resets the grace period anchor timestamp on every login cycle, causing mandatory 2FA enforcement to be deferred indefinitely.

    The Vigilant – 100% Free Security Suite: Firewall, 2FA, Login, Headers, Scanner… plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via User-Agent Header in all versions up to, and including, 2.10.2 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 malicious payload is delivered passively by any unauthenticated visitor who triggers a failed login attempt with a crafted User-Agent header, requiring no further interaction from the attacker once stored.

    The Security Hardener plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.4. The vulnerability exists because the plugin's user-enumeration protection, which is enabled by default, hooks the rest_endpoints filter via secure_user_endpoints() and overwrites every registered handler's permission_callback on both the /wp/v2/users and /wp/v2/users/(?P<id>[\d]+) routes — including POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE handlers — with a bare closure that returns only is_user_logged_in(), completely stripping WordPress Core's original capability checks such as create_users, promote_user, edit_users, and delete_users that WP_REST_Users_Controller normally enforces. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access and above to create new Administrator accounts by sending POST request to /wp/v2/users with administrator role, or to reset an existing Administrator's password by issuing a PUT/POST request to /wp/v2/users/<id>. Because the block_user_enum option defaults to enabled, no special plugin configuration is required — the overwrite is active on every request as soon as the plugin is installed.
