Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: CodeRevolution
Product: Crawlomatic Multipage Scraper Post Generator

Description

The Crawlomatic Multipage Scraper Post Generator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.2 via the filter_content function. This is due to passing the attacker-supplied 'callback_raw' shortcode attribute directly into call_user_func() with no sanitization or allowlist validation, relying solely on an is_callable() check that permits dangerous PHP built-ins such as system, shell_exec, exec, passthru, and assert. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to execute code on the server. An identical sink exists for the 'callback' attribute, providing a second independent vector through the same shortcode.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-9009 is a remote code execution vulnerability in the Crawlomatic Multipage Scraper Post Generator WordPress plugin. The issue arises from the unsafe use of the 'callback_raw' and 'callback' shortcode attributes, which are passed directly to call_user_func() without sanitization or allowlist checks. The plugin only verifies if the function is callable, allowing dangerous PHP built-in functions such as system, shell_exec, exec, passthru, and assert to be invoked by authenticated users with author-level access or higher. This enables remote code execution on the server hosting the plugin. There is no vendor advisory or patch information available at this time.

Potential Impact

An authenticated attacker with author-level or higher privileges can execute arbitrary PHP code on the server, potentially leading to full system compromise, data theft, or service disruption. The vulnerability affects confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system. No known exploits in the wild have been reported yet.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict author-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or removing the vulnerable plugin to prevent exploitation.
