High CVSS 8.8

CVE-2026-14293

NVD analysis in progress

The Autopay WordPress plugin before 5.0.1 does not perform any capability or nonce check before saving a styling option from a public request, and does not escape that value when it is later output on the checkout page, allowing unauthenticated attackers to store JavaScript that executes in the browser of any user, including administrators, who loads the checkout page.

What this means

Exposure
Exploitable remotely over the network and without authentication — but only if a user opens booby-trapped content.
Impact
An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
Weakness
Attacker-supplied script runs in other users’ browsers (cross-site scripting).
Likelihood
Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.

What to doFold into the next patch cycle.
