{"id":"CVE-2026-92115","published":"2026-10-16T07:17:13.907","lastModified":"2026-10-16T15:17:35.193","description":"The WP Photo Album Plus plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authenticated Command Injection in all versions up to, and including, 9.3.02.002 via the `value` parameter of the `update-photo` AJAX action. This is due to insufficient shell escaping within the `wppa_image_magick_a()` function, where the attacker-controlled `value` parameter is concatenated raw — without `escapeshellarg()` — into an ImageMagick command string before being passed to `exec()`; further, `wppa_decode()` actively restores percent-encoded shell metacharacters (e.g., `%26`→`&`, `%23`→`#`) rather than stripping them, allowing crafted payloads to survive sanitization and break out of the ImageMagick argument context. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers holding the plugin-defined `wppa_upload` capability to execute arbitrary operating-system commands as the web-server user, achieving full remote code execution on the underlying server. Exploitation requires ImageMagick to be enabled on the server; the `wppa_upload` capability is a plugin-level privilege that site administrators may grant to lower-privileged WordPress roles via the plugin's Users settings, broadening the pool of potential attackers beyond administrators.","cvssScore":8.8,"cvssSeverity":"HIGH","cvssVector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","cwes":["CWE-77"],"vendors":[],"products":[],"references":[{"url":"https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/wp-photo-album-plus.9.3.02.003.zip","tags":[]},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-photo-album-plus/tags/9.3.01.003/wppa-ajax.php#L2211","tags":[]},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-photo-album-plus/tags/9.3.01.003/wppa-ajax.php#L2223","tags":[]},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-photo-album-plus/tags/9.3.01.003/wppa-ajax.php#L2557","tags":[]},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-photo-album-plus/tags/9.3.01.003/wppa-photo-files.php#L859","tags":[]},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-photo-album-plus/tags/9.3.01.003/wppa-photo-files.php#L874","tags":[]},{"url":"https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/fc663d68-ca52-4012-847f-09817c121890?source=cve","tags":[]}],"exploitRefs":[],"hasPoc":false,"ai":null}
