High CVSS 7.5
CVE-2026-10083
The APCu Manager WordPress plugin before 4.5.0 does not escape APCu object-cache keys before rendering them in an admin-area page, leading to a Stored Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability. When a persistent object cache is enabled, cache keys derived from unsanitised user input (e.g. a transient name created by another APCu Manager WordPress plugin before 4.5.0 from an unauthenticated request) are output without escaping and execute arbitrary JavaScript in the session of an administrator viewing the page.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network and without authentication — but only if a user opens booby-trapped content. The attack does require particular conditions, which makes it less systematic.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
