CVE-2026-15404: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in niklaslindemann Bulk Page Generator – LPagery

VulnerabilityCVE-2026-15404cvecve-2026-15404cwe-79
Published: 07/23/2026 (07/23/2026, 08:34:38 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: niklaslindemann
Product: Bulk Page Generator – LPagery

Description

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.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-15404 describes a stored Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability in the LPagery plugin for WordPress. The issue occurs because the function lpagery_add_filter_text_template_post(), hooked to admin_footer, outputs the raw post_title referenced by the ?lpagery_template query parameter directly inside a JavaScript single-quoted string literal without proper escaping functions such as esc_js() or esc_html(). This allows authenticated attackers with Contributor-level permissions or above to inject arbitrary JavaScript code that executes in the context of higher-privileged users (e.g., administrators) when they access an admin page with the crafted parameter.

Potential Impact

An attacker with Contributor-level access or higher can inject persistent malicious scripts into post titles. These scripts execute in the browsers of higher-privileged users who view the affected admin pages, potentially leading to session hijacking, privilege escalation, or other malicious actions within the WordPress admin context. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 score of 6.4 (medium severity), indicating a moderate risk with network attack vector, low attack complexity, and no user interaction required.

Mitigation Recommendations

No official patch or remediation is currently confirmed. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict Contributor-level access to trusted users only and avoid visiting admin pages with the ?lpagery_template query parameter referencing untrusted posts. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply official fixes once released.
