- CVE-2026-7622, 22 Sep 2026
- The ThumbPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access in versions up to and including 6.2.1. This is due to missing capability checks and nonce verification in the send_deactivation_survey() function registered via the wp_ajax_pl-plugin-deactivation AJAX action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to deactivate the ThumbPress plugin on the affected site by sending a crafted POST request to admin-ajax. CVE record
- CVE-2026-13432, 20 Jul 2026
- The ThumbPress WordPress plugin before 6.2.2 does not perform a capability check on one of its AJAX actions, allowing authenticated users with subscriber-level access or higher to deactivate the ThumbPress WordPress plugin before 6.2.2, disrupting the site's image-handling functionality. CVE record
What to do if you run ThumbPress
If you run ThumbPress, 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.
