CVE-2026-96572 | BDVDB-2026-385396 Detail
aguidrevitchWP Meteor Website Speed Optimization Addon
Description#
The WP Meteor Website Speed Optimization Addon plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Author Name in all versions up to, and including, 3.4.18 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The payload is delivered via the comment author name field, which must clear WordPress's comment moderation workflow before being displayed, though this represents a display prerequisite rather than any sanitization control.
Impact#
Per CVSS v3.1: confidentiality impact low, integrity impact low, availability impact none. Attack vector: network.
Weaknesses#
- CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')
