CVE-2026-84926

The EmbedPress WordPress plugin before 4.6.4 does not correctly restrict access to one of its Google Reviews REST routes to administrators, allowing any authenticated user with contributor-level access or above to read the site administrator's email address, a value WordPress core withholds from that role.

What this means for your business

  • An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, with an administrator login, and without anyone at your company clicking anything.
  • FIRST's prediction model gives it a 0.2% chance of attack attempts being seen in the next 30 days, ranking above 8% of all known flaws.

What to do

  1. 1Ask your IT team or provider whether any of your systems use the affected product.
  2. 2If you do, follow the vendor's guidance. No patch reference has been published yet.
