Exploitation evidence

CVE published 11 Nov 2026
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponized: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation

No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 10 Nov 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

Upgrade the Code Snippets WordPress plugin to version 4.1.0 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed.

Description

The Code Snippets WordPress plugin versions prior to 4.1.0 have a vulnerability in multisite environments where network-level capability checks are not performed on snippet import routes. This allows a subsite administrator without network-management rights to create, overwrite, or deactivate network-wide snippets affecting the entire network.

Impact

An attacker with administrator privileges on a single subsite in a multisite WordPress installation can escalate their influence by modifying network-wide code snippets. This could lead to unauthorized changes affecting all sites in the network, potentially disrupting functionality or introducing malicious code at the network level.

Summary

The Code Snippets WordPress plugin before version 4.1.0 fails to verify network-level capabilities when processing a network-scope parameter on snippet import routes in multisite setups. Consequently, an administrator of a single subsite, who normally lacks network-management privileges, can manipulate network-wide snippets by creating, overwriting, or deactivating them, potentially impacting the entire multisite network.
