Published: 06/24/2026 (06/24/2026, 05:33:23 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: nicashmu
Product: Cincopa video and media plug-in

Description

The Cincopa video and media plug-in plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via cincopa Shortcode in Post Comments in all versions up to, and including, 1.163 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Exploitation is possible because the plugin processes the [cincopa] shortcode via a comment_text filter hook, allowing unauthenticated visitors who can post comments to supply a malicious shortcode argument that persists in the database.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-10092 describes a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Cincopa video and media plug-in for WordPress. The vulnerability exists because the plugin processes the [cincopa] shortcode via a comment_text filter hook without sufficient input sanitization or output escaping. This allows unauthenticated attackers who can submit comments to inject persistent malicious scripts into the database. When other users access pages containing these comments, the injected scripts execute in their browsers. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 1.163. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.2, indicating high severity. No patch or official remediation level has been provided by the vendor as of the published date.

Potential Impact

An unauthenticated attacker able to post comments can inject malicious scripts that persist in the database and execute in the browsers of users viewing the affected pages. This can lead to partial confidentiality and integrity loss (e.g., theft of user session data or manipulation of page content). Availability is not impacted. The vulnerability affects all users who view the injected content.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, consider restricting or moderating comment submissions to prevent untrusted users from posting content with the [cincopa] shortcode. Additionally, review and apply any security controls that sanitize or filter comment content at the application or web server level.
