CVE-2026-9009 Details
Description
The Crawlomatic Multipage Scraper Post Generator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.2 via the filter_content function. This is due to passing the attacker-supplied 'callback_raw' shortcode attribute directly into call_user_func() with no sanitization or allowlist validation, relying solely on an is_callable() check that permits dangerous PHP built-ins such as system, shell_exec, exec, passthru, and assert. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to execute code on the server. An identical sink exists for the 'callback' attribute, providing a second independent vector through the same shortcode.
A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the Crawlomatic Multipage Scraper Post Generator plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions through 2.7.2. The issue arises in the filter_content function, where the 'callback_raw' shortcode attribute is passed directly to call_user_func() without proper sanitization or validation. This oversight allows authenticated attackers with author-level access or higher to execute arbitrary code on the server, as the is_callable() check permits the use of dangerous PHP functions like system, shell_exec, exec, passthru, and assert. Additionally, the 'callback' attribute presents a separate but similar vector for exploitation.
Users are advised to update the Crawlomatic Multipage Scraper Post Generator plugin to version 2.7.3 or a newer patched version.
