CVE-2026-109686
validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.description
Link Whisper Free through version 0.9.7 is affected by unsafe deserialization that can permit object injection. An unauthenticated remote attacker may be able to compromise the affected WordPress site; the record indicates no user interaction is required.
mitigation
Disable and remove the affected plugin where feasible until the maintainer provides an updated release. Otherwise, restrict public access to the WordPress site and closely limit exposure to untrusted requests.
outcome
Check only, differential: the check fires on the vulnerable build and is silent on the patched one.
