AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-7650 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the E2Pdf – Export Pdf Tool for WordPress plugin affecting all versions up to and including 1.32.17. The issue is caused by improper neutralization of input in the 'id' attribute of the e2pdf-download shortcode, allowing authenticated users with Contributor-level permissions or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts. These scripts execute in the context of users who access the injected pages, potentially leading to session hijacking or other script-based attacks. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 score of 6.4 (medium severity) with network attack vector, low attack complexity, and no user interaction required. No official fix or patch has been documented yet.
Potential Impact
An attacker with Contributor-level or higher privileges can inject malicious JavaScript code into pages via the vulnerable shortcode attribute. This code executes in the browsers of users who view the compromised pages, potentially leading to theft of session tokens, defacement, or other client-side impacts. The vulnerability does not affect availability but impacts confidentiality and integrity to a limited extent. No known public exploits have been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict Contributor-level access to trusted users only and consider removing or disabling the E2Pdf plugin if possible. Monitor plugin updates closely for a security patch addressing this vulnerability.
