CVE-2026-74012 HIGH This Week

PHP Object Injection in TaxoPress versions up to and including 3.51.0 enables authenticated low-privileged WordPress users to inject malicious serialized PHP objects through the plugin's editor interface. When a suitable Property-Oriented Programming (POP) gadget chain is present in the target WordPress environment, this can escalate to full remote code execution, unauthorized file writes, or complete site compromise. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but the CVSS 8.8 High rating reflects the severe potential impact achievable with low authentication requirements.

CVE-2026-42646 HIGH This Week

Blind SQL injection in TaxoPress (simple-tags) for WordPress, versions up to and including 3.44.0, lets a high-privileged authenticated user inject SQL through improperly neutralized input (CWE-89) and read arbitrary database contents. Reported by Patchstack (EUVD-2026-26217); there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.03%). The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.6 with a scope change, reflecting that a successful injection reaches the backend database beyond the plugin's own security boundary.

CVE-2025-13359 MEDIUM PATCH This Month

The Tag, Category, and Taxonomy Manager - AI Autotagger with OpenAI plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via the "getTermsForAjax" function in all versions up to, and including, 3.40.1. This is due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameters and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database granted they have metabox access for the taxonomy (enabled by default for contributors).
