CVE-2026-15010 - Bbp Style Pack Plugin

CVE-2026-15010

The bbp Style Pack plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to, and including, 6.4.5 via the Topic Form Additional Fields feature. This is due to insufficient input sanitization in bsp_topic_fields_form_save() (which writes $_POST['bsp_topic_fields_label{n}'] directly to post meta via update_post_meta() with no filtering) and missing output escaping in bsp_topic_content_append_topic_fields() (which concatenates the stored meta value into an HTML and echoes it via apply_filters/echo without esc_html()). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above (who have bbPress topic-creation privileges), to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page, including unauthenticated visitors.

Potential Impact

Severity is MEDIUM (CVSS 6.4). Depending on deployment context, affected components may be exposed to unauthorized actions or data integrity risk.

Exploitability Assessment

Exploitability is assessed as High based on remote code execution potential, low-bar exploit prerequisites.

Primary risk drivers: remote code execution potential, low-bar exploit prerequisites

Mitigation Recommendations

Validate affected product versions, prioritize patching, and monitor references for vendor remediation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, apply compensating controls and limit exposure of vulnerable surfaces.

Detection & Monitoring

Track authentication anomalies, unexpected file writes, and suspicious plugin API activity around affected components.

Business Impact Lens

AI risk score 69/100 (Elevated, High) with priority P3 Priority. Prioritize remediation where affected components process customer data, admin sessions, or Internet-exposed workflows.
