CVE-2026-109215 Details
Description
The LiteSpeed Cache plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'bbp_reply_content' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 7.9.1 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. Exploitation requires that an administrator has enabled Viewport Images (VPI) and configured a VPI filename that matches an image the attacker can embed in user-generated content — such as a bbPress topic where Subscriber-level Participants are permitted to post replies containing raw img tags.
A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in the LiteSpeed Cache plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions through 7.9.1. The issue arises from inadequate input sanitization and output escaping, allowing authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access or higher to inject arbitrary scripts into pages. These scripts execute when a user accesses the compromised page. Exploitation requires the Viewport Images (VPI) feature to be enabled by an administrator, with a VPI filename set to match an image that the attacker can embed in user-generated content, such as a bbPress topic allowing Subscriber-level participants to post replies with raw image tags.
Users are advised to update the LiteSpeed Cache plugin to version 7.9.2 or a newer patched version.
