CVE-2026-110530 Details
Description
The FeedWordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to, and including, 2026.0517 via syndicated RSS/Atom feed content. The plugin's SyndicatedPost::sanitize_content() function only strips the 'target' attribute (the lines that would strip 'style' and 'on[a-z]+' event-handler attributes are commented out), and SyndicatedPost::insert_post() deliberately removes WordPress's wp_filter_kses and wp_filter_post_kses filters from content_save_pre before persisting imported feed items via wp_insert_post(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers who control an external feed that a site has already subscribed to to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in the FeedWordPress plugin for WordPress, affecting versions through 2026.0517. The issue arises in the plugin's SyndicatedPost class, where the content sanitization function fails to adequately remove potentially harmful attributes, leaving an avenue for script injection. This vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to exploit external feeds that the site has subscribed to, injecting scripts that execute when users view the affected pages.
Users can update to FeedWordPress version 2026.1016 or a newer patched version to address this vulnerability.
