CVE-2026-8628
CWE-79Published: June 24, 2026· Updated: Jun 25, 2026
Official Description
The EntreDroppers plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via PHP_SELF Parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. The payload is delivered via attacker-controlled path-info in the URL (e.g., /wp-admin/admin.php/"><script>alert(0)</script>/?page=EntreDroppers.php), which PHP_SELF reflects directly into the form action attribute.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-8628 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation does not require any privileges, though user interaction (Required) is needed, which slightly reduces the risk of mass automated attacks.
The vulnerability has a "Changed" scope, meaning successful exploitation can impact components beyond the vulnerable component itself — such as the host operating system or adjacent services.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-79): Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities allow attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages viewed by other users.
