CVE-2026-116546 | BDVDB-2026-398673 Detail
wpjobportalWP Job Portal – AI-Powered Recruitment System for Company or Job Board website
Description#
The WP Job Portal – AI-Powered Recruitment System for Company or Job Board website plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'degreetitle' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The plugin's self-registration flow allows any visitor to create a Subscriber-backed Employer account, meaning this vulnerability is effectively exploitable by any user who can register on the site.
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')
