    The Demo Import WordPress plugin through 1.1.3 does not validate the type of files uploaded during demo-content import (the WordPress file-type test is disabled), allowing high-privilege users (Administrator by default, including non-super-admin site administrators on multisite) to upload executable PHP files to the uploads directory.

  • Aug 1, 2026FormGent: Unauthorized arbitrary file deletionCVE-2026-3141 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.1

    The FormGent plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized arbitrary file deletion due to a missing capability check on the /wp-json/formgent/responses/attachments REST API endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 1.9.2 This is due to the REST API route being registered without any authentication middleware in routes/rest/api.php. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files within the formgent uploads directory. Additionally, on Linux servers where the wp-content/uploads/formgent directory does not yet exist (the default state after plugin installation), the path traversal protection can be bypassed, enabling deletion of arbitrary files including wp-config.php which can lead to complete site takeover via a fresh WordPress installation.

    The Realtyna Organic IDX plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in versions up to, and including, 5.3.0. This is due to missing file extension and content validation in the saveLiveImages() function combined with an insufficient authorization check on the get_keys() AJAX handler and a missing authentication check on the REST API import endpoint. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.

  • Jul 31, 2026Realtyna Organic IDX plugin + WPL Real Estate: Arbitrary File UploadCVE-2026-14483 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    The Realtyna Organic IDX plugin + WPL Real Estate plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in all versions up to, and including, 5.2.0 via the upload function. This is due to missing file type validation in the upload function, combined with a publicly accessible I/O endpoint authenticated solely by static, plugin-seeded API credentials that are identical across all installations. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload files that may be executable, which makes remote code execution possible. The WPL I/O service endpoint is registered on the public WordPress init hook with no WordPress capability check, and the required api_key and api_secret values are static defaults seeded by the plugin's own SQL migration files, meaning any unauthenticated attacker who knows these publicly documented defaults can reach and exploit the vulnerable upload path.

    The Extra Checkout Options (addon for Extra Product Options & Add-Ons for WooCommerce) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in all versions up to, and including, 2.3.2. This is due to missing authorization and nonce validation in the eco_save_settings() function, which allows low-privileged authenticated users to modify the tc_eco_custom_file_types upload allowlist setting, combined with insufficient authorization on the wc_eco_upload_file AJAX action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to allow PHP uploads, upload a PHP file using the frontend upload nonce exposed on cart and checkout pages, and achieve remote code execution. NOTE: This vulnerability was partially fixed in version 2.3.2.

    The miniOrange Social Login and Register (Discord, Google, Twitter, LinkedIn) WordPress plugin before 7.8.0 does not bind the one-time code used by its optional email-verification (Profile Completion) feature to the account it was issued for, allowing unauthenticated attackers to obtain a valid session for any account, including administrators, by requesting a code for an email address they control and replaying it against the victim's email address.

    The Easy Digital Downloads plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in versions up to and including 3.6.9. This is due to insufficient file type validation in the edd_do_ajax_import_file_upload() function , which only checks the client-supplied $_FILES['edd-import-file']['type'] Content-Type header against an allow-list of CSV mime types, then uses raw move_uploaded_file() (bypassing wp_handle_upload()'s core MIME enforcement) to write the file under its original extension into the web-accessible wp-content/uploads/edd/exports/ directory. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Shop Manager-level access and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.

    The SpeedyCache plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Read via Path Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 1.3.8. This is due to a mismatch between CSS URL validation (which allows query strings like `.css?...`) and path resolution (which strips query strings), combined with no validation that the resolved file is actually a CSS file. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to read arbitrary files from the server (including `wp-config.php` and `/etc/passwd`) by injecting crafted `<link>` tags into page content, with the file contents written to publicly accessible cache files.

  • Jul 28, 2026Better Messages – Chat Rooms, Group Chat, Private Messages & AI Chat Bots: Arbitrary file deletionCVE-2026-16585 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The Better Messages – Chat Rooms, Group Chat, Private Messages & AI Chat Bots plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the delete_sticker function in all versions up to, and including, 2.15.19. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to delete arbitrary files on the server, which can easily lead to remote code execution when the right file is deleted (such as wp-config.php). The prefix check intended to restrict deletion to the uploads directory can be bypassed by crafting a URL that begins with the legitimate uploads base URL but embeds ../ traversal sequences in the path portion, as the normalize_sticker function only applies esc_url_raw(), which does not strip ../ sequences, allowing the traversal payload to be stored verbatim in WordPress options.

    The Paid Membership Plugin, Ecommerce, User Registration Form, Login Form, User Profile & Restrict Content WordPress plugin before 4.16.18 does not consistently enforce the role restriction configured on its front-end registration role-selection field. The set of roles offered to the visitor and the set of roles the registration handler accepts are derived by two different parsers, and for some valid ways of configuring the offered roles the handler ignores the restriction and falls back to accepting any non-administrator role. Combined with the absence of a nonce on the public registration handler, this allows an unauthenticated visitor to register an account with a higher role, such as Editor or Author, than the form was configured to offer.

  • Jul 23, 2026GoDAM – Organize WordPress Media Library & File Manager with Unlimited Folders for Images, Videos & more: Arbitrary file uploadsCVE-2026-14282 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceCritical 9.8

    The GoDAM – Organize WordPress Media Library & File Manager with Unlimited Folders for Images, Videos & more plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads in versions up to, and including, 1.12.2. This is due to insufficient file type validation in the save_video_file() function hooked into WPForms' public wpforms_process_before_filter, which trusts the attacker-supplied multipart Content-Type header, preserves the original filename via wp_unique_filename(), and moves the raw upload with $wp_filesystem->move() into a web-served directory — bypassing wp_handle_upload()'s MIME/extension allowlist. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.

  • Jul 23, 2026WP Compress: Does not validate the value of a query parameter that controls the asset CDN host before using it to build the URLs of JavaScript files emitted on the pageCVE-2026-9066 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WPScanMedium 6.1

    The WP Compress WordPress plugin before 7.10.04 does not validate the value of a query parameter that controls the asset CDN host before using it to build the URLs of JavaScript files emitted on the page, leading to Reflected XSS. When a visitor follows a crafted link, the WP Compress WordPress plugin before 7.10.04's loader injects script elements pointing to an attacker-controlled origin, which lets the attacker execute arbitrary JavaScript in the visitor's session on the target site.

  • Jul 21, 2026libheif is a HEIF and AVIF file format decoder and encoder.CVE-2026-47247 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by GitHubHigh 7.5

    libheif is a HEIF and AVIF file format decoder and encoder. Prior to version 1.22.0, two bugs in libheif chain to leak process heap memory as visible pixel values in decoded grid images. An attacker who uploads a crafted AVIF/HEIC file to any server-side image processor (WordPress, Sharp/libvips, ImageMagick, etc.) can recover heap data - including library function pointers sufficient to defeat ASLR, or any other secret - from the publicly-downloadable transcoded JPEG/PNG/WebP output. Local attack vectors are also possible. Version 1.22.0 fixes the issue.

    The Paid Membership Plugin, Ecommerce, User Registration Form, Login Form, User Profile & Restrict Content – ProfilePress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in all versions up to, and including, 4.16.18 via the allowed_mime_types function. This is due to the unconditional registration of an upload_mimes filter that adds executable file extensions (.exe, .apk, .msi) to the global WordPress MIME allowlist, without scoping the expansion to digital-product upload contexts. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to upload files that may be executable, which makes remote code execution possible. This filter is registered globally on every request regardless of whether the digital products feature is configured or in use, meaning the expanded MIME allowlist affects all WordPress upload contexts site-wide.

    The Uncanny Automator – Easy Automation, Integration, Webhooks & Workflow Builder Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the fr_token function in all versions up to, and including, 7.3.1.4. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files on the server, which can easily lead to remote code execution when the right file is deleted (such as wp-config.php). Exploitation requires a Forminator form connected to an Uncanny Automator recipe configured for 'Everyone', allowing unauthenticated form submissions to supply the malicious serialized payload; a gadget chain is present within the plugin via the Action_Helpers_Email __destruct() method, meaning no external gadget library is required.
