Description

CVE-2026-14318 is a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the GiveWP WordPress plugin versions before 4.16.3. It occurs because the plugin does not properly escape a donation-form template setting before outputting it in an HTML attribute. This allows users with the GiveWP Worker role or higher to inject arbitrary scripts that execute on the public donation form for any visitor. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 6.8, indicating medium severity.
