CVE-2026-89269
validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.GHSA-vc4w-4wqx-vv6m ↗EUVD-2026-98299 ↗
description
WP Testimonials versions through 1.4.13 can render testimonial content without effective HTML sanitization. A user with an Author-level or higher account can store browser-executed script that affects users who view the testimonials, including administrators.
mitigation
Restrict Author and higher roles to trusted users, and disable the plugin if untrusted contributors can submit testimonials. Monitor for a vendor-fixed release before upgrading; no fixed version is recorded.
outcome
Check only, differential: the check fires on the vulnerable build and is silent on the patched one.
