Essential Addons for Elementor <= 6.6.10 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Account Takeover via Email Header Injection
The Essential Addons for Elementor – Popular Elementor Templates & Widgets plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authenticated Account Takeover via Email Header Injection in all versions up to, and including, 6.6.10 This is due to insufficient server-side validation of a Login/Register widget setting used to construct outgoing email headers — the allowed-values restriction is enforced only in the client-side editor UI and not on the server, and the applied sanitization does not strip or encode CR/LF characters, allowing CRLF sequences stored in that setting to survive into raw mail headers. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject an additional Bcc header into the WordPress administrator's password-reset notification email, receive a copy of a valid administrator password-reset link, and achieve full administrator account takeover.

Simple JWT Login <= 3.6.6 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Authentication Bypass to Privilege Escalation via 'payload' Parameter
The Simple JWT Login – Allows you to use JWT on REST endpoints. plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.6 via the `payload` parameter. The vulnerability exists because `AuthenticateService::generatePayload()` only overwrites JWT payload keys whose names appear in the admin-configured `jwt_payload` list — leaving any attacker-supplied identity claims such as `email`, `id`, or `username` intact and signed into the JWT with the site's HS256 secret. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to escalate their privileges to that of an Administrator by injecting a target administrator's email address into the `payload` parameter at the `/wp-json/simple-jwt-login/v1/auth` endpoint, then redeeming the resulting JWT at the `/autologin` endpoint to obtain a fully authenticated session as that administrator.

CorvusPay WooCommerce Payment Gateway <= 2.7.4 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'approval_code' Parameter
The CorvusPay WooCommerce Payment Gateway plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'approval_code' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.4 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 unauthenticated REST endpoint POST /wp-json/corvuspay/success/ is registered with permission_callback set to __return_true, and although a signature validation step exists it only logs the result without halting execution, meaning an attacker can supply a completely arbitrary signature and have a malicious approval_code stored in the database unchallenged.

GoodMeet <= 1.1.8 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to Google Meet Credential Reset via 'goodmeet_reset_google_meet_credential'
The GoodMeet – Google Meet Integration for Webinar, Meeting & Video Conference plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to and including 1.1.8. This is due to a missing nonce verification in the reset_credential() function, which handles the wp_ajax_goodmeet_reset_google_meet_credential AJAX action. While the function does verify the user's capability (manage_options), it does not validate a nonce, making it susceptible to CSRF attacks. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to trick a site administrator into clicking a malicious link that will reset (delete) the plugin's stored Google Meet API credentials (goodmeet_google_credentials) and OAuth tokens (goodmeet_google_token), effectively disabling the Google Meet integration on the site.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
Logo Slider <= 5.5 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'lgx_tooltip_position' Parameter
The Logo Slider – Logo Carousel, Client Logo Slider & Brand Showcase for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'lgx_tooltip_position' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 5.5 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.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
Cookie Banner for GDPR / CCPA <= 4.3.6 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Scan Schedule Modification via gcc_save_schedule_scan AJAX Action
The GDPR Cookie Consent plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check and missing nonce verification on the gdpr_cookie_consent_ajax_save_schedule_scan() function (the wp_ajax_gcc_save_schedule_scan AJAX action) in versions up to, and including, 4.3.6. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify the plugin's cookie scan schedule configuration stored in the gdpr_scan_schedule_data option, which is an administrative function intended to be limited to users with the manage_options capability.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
Hide My WP Lite <= 1.3 - Unauthenticated Path Traversal to Arbitrary File Read via 'he_wrapper_js' Parameter
The Hide My WP Lite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Read in versions up to and including 1.3 via the he_wrapper_js and he_wrapper_css query parameters processed by the elementor_assets_filter() function. This is due to the function concatenating user-supplied input directly onto ABSPATH and passing the result to file_get_contents() without any path traversal validation, allow-list, realpath containment, or extension check; the result is then echoed in the HTTP response. Although the output is passed through wp_kses_post(), that function only filters HTML tags and does not prevent disclosure of arbitrary file contents. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read the contents of arbitrary files on the affected site's server (such as wp-config). Note: The exploit requires the Elementor plugin and the 'Hide Elementor' feature to be enabled.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
SureCart <= 4.2.3 - Unauthenticated Linked WordPress Account Takeover via Forged customer.updated Webhook
The SureCart plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in versions up to, and including, 4.2.3. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to updating their details like email during customer profile synchronization from webhook events. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change linked user's email addresses, including administrators if the administrator account is linked to a SureCart customer record, and leverage that to reset the user's password and gain access to their account if the customer ID is known.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
KiviCare <= 4.5.0 - Authenticated (Doctor+) SQL Injection via 'orderby' Parameter in KCQueryBuilder
The KiviCare – Clinic & Patient Management System (EHR) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'orderby' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.5.0 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with doctor-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. This requires that the attacker hold at minimum a KiviCare Doctor-level account, or a Receptionist or Clinic Admin role that grants the doctor_session_list capability.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
HappyForms <= 1.26.12 - Authenticated (Admin+) Local File Inclusion
The Happyforms – Form Builder for WordPress: Drag & Drop Contact Forms, Surveys, Payments & Multipurpose Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 1.26.12 via the happyforms_get_form_partial() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to include and execute arbitrary .php files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where .php file types can be uploaded and included.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
WCFM – Frontend Manager for WooCommerce <= 6.7.27 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Missing Authorization to Arbitrary Vendor Data Manipulation via Multiple AJAX Handlers
The WCFM – Frontend Manager for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 6.7.27 via the wcfm_product_archive due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to archive arbitrary vendors' products, toggle the featured status on arbitrary listings, mark arbitrary WooCommerce orders as completed, and permanently delete arbitrary enquiries and bulk messages belonging to other vendors.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
Mux Video Uploader <= 1.1.4 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Information Exposure
The Mux Video Uploader plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.4 via the muxvideo_enqueue_settings_script. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to extract sensitive data including Mux API credentials.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
Fluent Forms <= 6.2.1 - Incorrect Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Arbitrary Subscription Cancellation via 'subscription_id'
The Fluent Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to incorrect authorization via the 'subscription_id' parameter in versions up to, and including, 6.2.1. This is due to insufficient ownership authorization checks in the payment cancellation AJAX flow. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to submit cancellation requests for other users' subscriptions.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
WP Ultimate CSV Importer <= 8.0.1 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Remote Code Execution via 'MappedFields' Parameter
The WP Ultimate CSV Importer – WordPress Import & Export for CSV, XML & Excel plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 8.0.1 via the 'MappedFields' parameter. This is due to missing capability checks on the AJAX handlers for install_addon, saveMappedFields, and StartImport, combined with the plugin nonce being exposed to any authenticated user who can load an admin page, allowing a Subscriber to install the Import WooCommerce add-on, persist attacker-controlled PHP expressions in the MappedFields parameter, and trigger evaluation via eval() in ImportHelpers::get_meta_values(). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to execute code on the server.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
W3 Total Cache <= 2.9.4 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Read via 'f_array[]' Parameter
The W3 Total Cache plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 2.9.4 via the setupSources function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read the contents of arbitrary files on the server, which can contain sensitive information. Exploitation requires enabling manual minify mode and supplying a manual-format minify filename so that the hash is empty and the f_array[] entries are not overwritten before reaching setupSources().
Updated Jul 13, 2026
Super Forms <= 6.3.313 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Upload via 'data' Parameter (datauristring / value)
The Super Forms – Drag & Drop Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in all versions up to, and including, 6.3.313 via the submit_form function. This is due to missing file type validation and the absence of any capability check on the submit_form nopriv AJAX handler, whose only barrier is a session nonce freely obtainable by unauthenticated visitors via a separate nopriv endpoint. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload files that may be executable, which makes remote code execution possible. The nonce requirement is trivially bypassed because the super_create_nonce nopriv AJAX action allows any unauthenticated visitor to mint a valid sf_nonce and session cookie in a single prior request, reducing exploitation to two unauthenticated HTTP requests.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
ThriveDesk <= 2.1.7 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Cache Deletion
The ThriveDesk – Live Chat, AI Chatbot, Helpdesk & Knowledge Base plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized cache deletion due to a missing capability check on the 'thrivedesk_clear_cache' AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.7. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to clear the plugin's cache.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
Easy Appointments <= 3.12.27 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Author+) Bulk Appointment Manipulation
The Easy Appointments plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 3.12.27. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to cancel all upcoming appointments site-wide by marking every future appointment stored by the plugin as abandoned. The nonce required to authenticate the cancellation request is printed on the Appointments admin page, which is itself gated only by the edit_posts capability that Authors possess, making the nonce readily accessible to low-privileged users.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
KiviCare <= 4.4.0 - Missing Authorization to Unauthenticated Payment Bypass and Appointment Status Manipulation via /payment-success REST Endpoint
The KiviCare – Clinic & Patient Management System (EHR) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 4.4.0. 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 mark arbitrary pending appointments as Confirmed and forge an associated completed payment record in wp_kc_payments_appointment_mappings using an attacker-supplied payment ID, bypassing payment entirely. This exploit is achievable on a default installation because the gateway resolution logic returns all registered gateways regardless of admin-enabled status, making the manual (KCPayLater) gateway always selectable.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
Motors <= 1.4.112 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Content and User Biographical Info
The Motors – Car Dealership & Classified Listings Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Content and User Biographical Info in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.112 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.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
bbp style pack <= 6.4.5 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Topic Form Additional Fields
The bbp Style Pack plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to, and including, 6.4.5 via the Topic Form Additional Fields feature. This is due to insufficient input sanitization in bsp_topic_fields_form_save() (which writes $_POST['bsp_topic_fields_label{n}'] directly to post meta via update_post_meta() with no filtering) and missing output escaping in bsp_topic_content_append_topic_fields() (which concatenates the stored meta value into an HTML <span> and echoes it via apply_filters/echo without esc_html()). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above (who have bbPress topic-creation privileges), to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page, including unauthenticated visitors.
Updated Jul 13, 2026
Divi Form Builder WordPress Plugin Account Takeover Vulnerability
The Divi Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to, and including, 5.1.8. This is due to the update_user() function accepting a user ID parameter from form submissions without verifying that the authenticated user has permission to edit that specific user account, and the handle_register_submission() function only checking if any user is logged in rather than validating permissions for the target user. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to change the email address and password of any user account, including administrators, resulting in complete account takeover.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
Everest Forms Public Temporary CSV Exposure Vulnerability
The Everest Forms WordPress plugin before 3.5.0 does not reliably delete temporary CSV files generated during email-notification processing and leaves them publicly accessible in the uploads directory, allowing unauthenticated attackers to retrieve other users' form submission records via predictable, enumerable filenames.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
WP DSGVO Tools GDPR Personal Data Export Authorization Bypass Vulnerability
The WP DSGVO Tools (GDPR) WordPress plugin before 3.1.40 does not perform an authorization check on the immediate-processing path of its data subject access request feature, allowing unauthenticated attackers to generate and download the full personal-data export (including name, postal address, phone number, email, and comment content) of any user, customer, or commenter by supplying their email address.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
WP Support Plus Responsive Ticket System Guest Cookie Forgery Vulnerability
The WP Support Plus Responsive Ticket System WordPress plugin through 9.1.2 does not sign or verify its guest-session cookie, allowing unauthenticated attackers to forge it and impersonate any ticket owner (identified by email address) to read, reply to, and close that person's support tickets.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
Everest Forms Onboarding Assistant REST Authorization Bypass Vulnerability
The Everest Forms WordPress plugin before 3.5.0 does not correctly restrict access to several REST API endpoints belonging to its onboarding assistant: the capability check is only applied when an attacker-controllable request header holds a specific value, so it can be bypassed by omitting or changing that header. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read onboarding status information, modify the related Everest Forms WordPress plugin before 3.5.0 options, and trigger an email from the site to an arbitrary address.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
Fediverse Embeds WordPress Plugin Media Proxy SSRF Vulnerability
The Fediverse Embeds WordPress plugin before 1.5.8 does not validate the destination of the server-side request performed by an unauthenticated media-proxying endpoint, allowing anonymous users to make the site fetch arbitrary URLs, including internal and private-network addresses, and read back the response body. This results in a full-read Server-Side Request Forgery and open proxy.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
Fediverse Embeds WordPress Plugin Site Info SSRF Vulnerability
The Fediverse Embeds WordPress plugin before 1.5.8 does not validate the destination of the server-side request performed by an unauthenticated site-info endpoint before fetching it, allowing anonymous users (the gating nonce is exposed on public pages carrying an embed) to make the site request internal and private-network URLs and read back the parsed page metadata. This is a Server-Side Request Forgery.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
ProfileGrid WooCommerce Integration Unauthorized Plugin Installation Vulnerability
The Memberships and User Profiles for WooCommerce – ProfileGrid WooCommerce Integration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized plugin installation and activation in versions up to, and including, 3.4. This is due to a missing capability check and missing nonce validation on the pg_install_profilegrid() AJAX handler registered via wp_ajax_pg_install_profilegrid. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to install and activate the ProfileGrid plugin from wordpress.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
AcyMailing WordPress Plugin Stored Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability
The AcyMailing – An Ultimate Newsletter Plugin and Marketing Automation Solution for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'alignment' attribute in all versions up to, and including, 10.10.2 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.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
WP User Frontend Media Attachment Deletion Authorization Bypass Vulnerability
The User Frontend: AI Powered Frontend Posting, User Directory, Profile, Membership & User Registration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 4.3.7. 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 delete arbitrary media attachments whose post_author is 0, such as guest and registration-form uploads, via the wpuf_file_del AJAX action. This is exploitable by unauthenticated visitors on any site where a WPUF shortcode is rendered on a front-end page, as this causes the valid wpuf_nonce value to be localized into publicly accessible JavaScript objects (wpuf_upload and wpuf_frontend), satisfying the sole access control gate.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
WP User Frontend Arbitrary Post Overwrite IDOR Vulnerability
The User Frontend: AI Powered Frontend Posting, User Directory, Profile, Membership & User Registration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 4.3.7 via the 'wpuf_files_data' parameter due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to overwrite the post_title, post_content, and post_excerpt of any arbitrary post on the site, including posts authored by administrators. Exploitation requires access to any WPUF post submission form; this is achievable by users with no WordPress role, as the wpuf_submit_post AJAX action is gated only by a nonce with no capability check for the downstream post-edit operation.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
WP ERP WordPress Plugin SQL Injection Vulnerability
The ERP: Complete HR, Accounting & CRM Suite with Recruitment and WooCommerce CRM Support plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'orderby' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.17.5 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with custom-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. Exploitation requires the erp_list_employee capability, which is granted to HR Manager-level users and above within the WP ERP plugin.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
WPFunnels WordPress Plugin Local File Inclusion Vulnerability
The WPFunnels – Funnel Builder for WooCommerce with Checkout & One Click Upsell plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 3.12.7 via the 'logKey' parameter parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to include and execute arbitrary .php files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where .php file types can be uploaded and included.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
Ultimate Post WordPress Plugin Stored Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability
The Ultimate Post plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'moreResultsText' block attribute of the ultimate-post/advanced-search block in versions up to and including 5.0.31. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the Advanced_Search::content() render callback: the attribute value is filtered with wp_kses(), which strips disallowed HTML tags but does NOT escape HTML special characters such as double quotes in plain text, and the result is then concatenated directly into the data-viewmoretext HTML attribute without esc_attr(). 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.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
Mang Board WP Reflected Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability
The Mang Board WP plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'stag' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.3.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
Updated Jul 10, 2026
