3 Nov 2026 WordPress Core Race condition CVE-2026-119977 8.1

WordPress Core is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in versions 4.7 through 7.1.3. This is due to predictable, web-accessible staging paths used during full-package core upgrades. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute code on the server during the upgrade window.

What to do
Apply the vendor's update or fix (see the vendor advisory below). If you can't, take it off the internet or stop using it until you can.

3 Nov 2021 WordPress File Manager Plugin Malicious file upload CVE-2020-25213 9.8

The File Manager (wp-file-manager) plugin before 6.9 for WordPress allows remote attackers to upload and execute arbitrary PHP code because it renames an unsafe example elFinder connector file to have the .php extension. This, for example, allows attackers to run the elFinder upload (or mkfile and put) command to write PHP code into the wp-content/plugins/wp-file-manager/lib/files/ directory. This was exploited in the wild in August and September 2020.

What to do
Apply updates per vendor instructions.

About the KEV Catalogue

What is the CISA KEV catalogue?

CISA's list of flaws attackers are known to be using. A flaw is added only with reliable evidence of attacks and a known fix.

Why does it matter more than the CVSS score?

Few CVEs are ever used in attacks. These are, so fix them first, whatever their score.

What is the due date?

The deadline for US federal agencies to fix it (BOD 26-04, which replaced BOD 22-01): as little as three days for recent entries. A sensible deadline for anyone.

Does it apply outside the US?

The deadlines don't, but the flaws are in software used everywhere. If you run it, it applies to you.

What does "used in ransomware" mean?

CISA knows ransomware groups have used the flaw.

How often is it updated?

CISA adds flaws several times a week. CVE Hawk checks hourly and alerts you within half an hour if it's your software.
