WP Editor, CVE-2026-3772

CVE, Research URL

CVE-2026-3772

Application

WP Editor

Published on
May 01, 2026
Research Description
The WP Editor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.9.2. This is due to missing nonce verification in the 'add_plugins_page' and 'add_themes_page' functions. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to overwrite arbitrary plugin and theme PHP files with attacker-controlled code via a forged request, granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking a link.
Affected versions
max 1.2.9.3.
Status
vulnerable
