CVE-2026-86783, 23 Sep 2026
The Post Grid Gutenberg Blocks WordPress plugin before 5.0.41 does not perform an authorization or post-visibility check on a REST API route that returns the custom field keys of a given post, allowing unauthenticated users to disclose the custom field key names of arbitrary posts, including private, draft, pending, scheduled and password-protected posts. CVE record
CVE-2026-5158, 6 Aug 2026
The Post Grid Gutenberg Blocks for News, Magazines, Blog Websites - PostX plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'inputPlaceHolder' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.13 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. CVE record
CVE-2026-15100, 24 Jul 2026
The Post Grid Gutenberg Blocks - PostX plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'searchnoresult' Block Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.32 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This is particularly concerning in a cross-privilege scenario where a Contributor creates a pending or draft post containing the malicious block attribute, which then executes arbitrary JavaScript in the browser session of an Editor or Administrator who previews that post. CVE record
CVE-2026-13253, 9 Jul 2026
The Ultimate Post plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'moreResultsText' block attribute of the ultimate-post/advanced-search block in versions up to and including 5.0.31. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the Advanced_Search::content() render callback: the attribute value is filtered with wp_kses(), which strips disallowed HTML tags but does NOT escape HTML special characters such as double quotes in plain text, and the result is then concatenated directly into the data-viewmoretext HTML attribute without esc_attr(). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. CVE record
CVE-2026-1273, 4 Mar 2026
The Post Grid Gutenberg Blocks for News, Magazines, Blog Websites - PostX plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.8 via the `/ultp/v3/starter_dummy_post/` and `/ultp/v3/starter_import_content/` REST API endpoints. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to make web requests to arbitrary locations originating from the web application and can be used to query and modify information from internal services. CVE record
CVE-2025-12980, 21 Dec 2025
The Post Grid Gutenberg Blocks for News, Magazines, Blog Websites - PostX plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on the '/ultp/v2/get_dynamic_content/' REST API endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.3. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to retrieve sensitive user metadata, including password hashes. CVE record
CVE-2024-10728, 16 Nov 2024
The Post Grid Gutenberg Blocks and WordPress Blog Plugin - PostX plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized plugin installation/activation due to a missing capability check on the 'install_required_plugin_callback' function in all versions up to, and including, 4.1.16. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to install and activate arbitrary plugins which can be leveraged to achieve remote code execution if another vulnerable plugin is installed and activated. CVE record
CVE-2024-5326, 30 May 2024
The Post Grid Gutenberg Blocks and WordPress Blog Plugin - PostX plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'postx_presets_callback' function in all versions up to, and including, 4.1.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to change arbitrary options on affected sites. This can be used to enable new user registration and set the default role for new users to Administrator. CVE record
CVE-2024-5223, 30 May 2024
The Post Grid Gutenberg Blocks and WordPress Blog Plugin - PostX plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's file uploading feature in all versions up to, and including, 4.1.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. CVE record
