CVE-2026-92967
The Pochipp plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'keyword' parameter in versions up to, and including, 1.20.2. This is due to insufficient output escaping , which reads $_GET['keyword'], applies only sanitize_text_field() (which strips tags but leaves double quotes intact) and interpolates the value directly into the value attribute of the search input via a PHP heredoc, without esc_attr(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user with upload_files capability (Author or above) into performing an action such as clicking on a specially crafted link to /wp-admin/media-upload.
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 0.2% chance of attack attempts being seen in the next 30 days, ranking above 12% 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.
