CVE-2026-15404

What is known

The Lpagery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via post titles in versions up to, and including, 2.5.7. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the lpagery_add_filter_text_template_post() function, which is hooked to admin_footer and echoes the raw post_title of the post referenced by the ?lpagery_template query parameter directly inside a JavaScript single-quoted string literal, without esc_js(), esc_html(), or any other encoding. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a higher-privileged user (such as an administrator) accesses an admin page with the ?lpagery_template=<post_id> parameter pointing at the attacker's post.

Business impact

Successful exploitation of CVE-2026-15404, a medium vulnerability (CVSS 6.4) affecting the affected product, may affect the confidentiality, integrity or availability of the vulnerable environment. The exact impact depends on the installed version, exposed interfaces and deployment configuration.

Recommended administrator action

Confirm whether the affected product is present and compare installed versions with the vendor advisory and NVD record. Apply the vendor patch or documented mitigation; until remediation is complete, reduce exposure of affected interfaces, review relevant logs and monitor for indicators of exploitation. DataHouse can support version verification, managed patching, network exposure reduction, log review and backup validation for dedicated, cloud and colocated environments.
