CVE-2026-1910: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in upmenu UpMenu – Online ordering for restaurants
The UpMenu – Online ordering for restaurants plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'lang' attribute of the 'upmenu-menu' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 3.1. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. 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.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The UpMenu WordPress plugin for restaurant online ordering suffers from a stored XSS vulnerability in all versions up to 3.1. This vulnerability is triggered through the 'lang' attribute of the 'upmenu-menu' shortcode, where user input is not properly sanitized or escaped before being rendered in web pages. Authenticated attackers with contributor or higher privileges can exploit this to inject arbitrary JavaScript, which executes in the context of users visiting the compromised pages. This can lead to information disclosure or session hijacking. The vulnerability is tracked as CVE-2026-1910 with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.4 (medium severity).
Potential Impact
An attacker with contributor-level or higher access can inject persistent malicious scripts into pages via the vulnerable shortcode attribute. These scripts execute in the browsers of users who view the infected pages, potentially leading to theft of sensitive information or session tokens. The vulnerability does not allow privilege escalation or denial of service directly but compromises user trust and data confidentiality.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict contributor-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or removing the UpMenu plugin if possible. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply patches promptly once released.
