With over 1+ million active installations, Spectra operates at a critical layer of content rendering and user interaction. Due to its complexity and broad functionality (including dynamic content, forms, popups, and frontend rendering), a comprehensive security audit was conducted.

CVE, Research URL

CVE-2026-10827

Date
Aug 01, 2026
Research Description
The Spectra Legacy WordPress plugin before 2.20.0 does not validate or escape several block style attributes before using them to build the CSS it outputs on the front end, allowing users with the Contributor role and above to inject arbitrary CSS into the pages that render the affected block. The injected styles are served to anonymous visitors of those pages and can force external resource loads, deface/redress the page, or exfiltrate data via CSS attribute selectors. JavaScript execution is not possible at this role (the script-tag breakout is removed by KSES), so the impact is limited to CSS injection.
Affected versions
max 2.20.0.
