CVE-2026-2496 Mar 21, 03:26 MEDIUM This Month

Ed's Font Awesome plugin for WordPress contains a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the eds_font_awesome shortcode due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping of user-supplied attributes. All versions up to and including 2.0 are affected, allowing authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher to inject arbitrary JavaScript that persists in pages and executes for all users viewing those pages. No evidence of active exploitation in the wild (KEV status unknown), but the vulnerability is straightforward to exploit given contributor access and represents a persistent compromise vector.
