CVE-2026-6692
CWE-434Published: May 7, 2026· Updated: May 7, 2026
Official Description
The Slider Revolution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in versions 7.0.0 to 7.0.10 via the '_get_media_url' and '_check_file_path' function. This is due to insufficient file type validation. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to upload files that may be executable, which makes remote code execution possible. The vulnerability was partially patched in version 7.0.10 and fully patched in version 7.0.11.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-6692 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 8.8.
CISA has added CVE-2026-6692 to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, confirming active exploitation in the wild. U.S. federal agencies are required to patch this within the mandated timeframe, and all organizations should treat remediation as urgent.
