CVE-2026-8702
CWE-79Published: May 27, 2026· Updated: May 27, 2026
Official Description
The GBI To Print plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in version 1.0 via the 'div' attribute of the 'gbitoprint' shortcode. This is due to insufficient output escaping in the gbi_toprint_shortcode() function, which concatenates the raw shortcode attribute value directly into an HTML attribute without applying esc_attr() or any other sanitization. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-8702 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.
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.
