CVE-2026-66570
validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.description
WordPress File Upload (wp-file-upload) versions through 5.2.1 are affected by a stored cross-site scripting flaw. An attacker may cause script content to be stored and later executed in another user's browser; the evidence does not specify the access or interaction required.
mitigation
Update wp-file-upload when a vendor-fixed release becomes available. Until then, reduce exposure by disabling the plugin or restricting access to its upload and content-management functions.
outcome
Upstream: a detection for this already ships elsewhere, so we didn't generate a new one. The credit goes to whoever did.
