VulnerabilityCVE-2026-15730cvecve-2026-15730cwe-79
Published: 07/28/2026 (07/28/2026, 06:54:36 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: rubengc
Product: GamiPress – Gamification plugin to reward points, achievements, badges & ranks in WordPress

Description

The GamiPress – Gamification plugin to reward points, achievements, badges & ranks in WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'heading_size' Shortcode Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 7.9.9.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. 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 user accesses an injected page. The wp_kses_post filter applied at post save does not neutralize this payload because only the inert shortcode text is stored in post_content; the dangerous HTML is synthesized at render time by the shortcode handler, entirely bypassing save-time sanitization.
