8.8High
CVE-2026-14293
The Autopay WordPress plugin before 5.0.1 does not perform any capability or nonce check before saving a styling option from a public request, and does not escape that value when it is later output on the checkout page, allowing unauthenticated attackers to store JavaScript that executes in the browser of any user, including administrators, who loads the checkout page.
What this means for your business
- An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, without a login, but only after tricking someone into an action such as opening a file or a link.
- FIRST's prediction model gives it a 0.3% chance of attack attempts being seen in the next 30 days, ranking above 19% of all known flaws.
What to do
- 1Ask your IT team or provider whether any of your systems use the affected product.
- 2If you do, follow the vendor's guidance. No patch reference has been published yet.
