- CVE-2026-19613, 16 Aug 2026
- The ECS WordPress plugin before 4.3.10 does not perform ownership or post-status checks when one of its dynamic repeater data sources reads custom field values from a user-supplied post identifier, allowing users with a contributor-level account or above to read custom field values and post metadata from posts they do not own, including private and draft ones. CVE record
- CVE-2026-18807, 15 Aug 2026
- The ECS WordPress plugin before 4.3.8 does not have capability or ownership checks on its dynamic repeater actions, relying only on a nonce available to any user who can open the page builder, allowing users with a contributor-level account or above to read, alter and delete the binding configuration of posts they do not own and to change the ECS WordPress plugin before 4.3.8's site-wide presets. CVE record
- CVE-2026-14230, 15 Aug 2026
- The ECS WordPress plugin before 4.3.8 does not perform capability or object-ownership checks on its Dynamic Repeater AJAX handlers (gated only by a capability-agnostic nonce that any edit_posts user obtains from the Elementor editor), so a Contributor can write a data-source binding into any post - including admin-authored pages - whose attacker-controlled values are rendered into a widget's repeater output without sanitization, executing JavaScript in the session of any visitor or administrator who views the page. CVE record
- CVE-2026-14229, 15 Aug 2026
- The ECS WordPress plugin before 4.3.8 does not check the post status or any capability when rendering an Elementor document requested through one of its AJAX actions, allowing unauthenticated users to retrieve the rendered content of unpublished (private, draft, pending) documents by supplying their identifier.

What to do if you run ECS
If you run ECS, open WordPress and check the installed version in Plugins. Compare it with the affected versions in the vulnerability record. If a fixed version is available, take a current backup and update to that version or the latest supported release.
If no fixed version exists, consider disabling and removing the plugin or replacing it with a maintained alternative. After dealing with the affected software, check administrator users, unexpected file changes, redirects, unfamiliar pages and security logs for signs that the site may already have been altered.
