{"cve":"CVE-2026-100185","nvd":{"published":"2026-10-14T04:18:03.807","modified":"2026-10-15T17:17:06.233","status":"Deferred","description":"The Directorist: AI-Powered Business Directory, Listings & Classified Ads plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'phone' Listing Field in all versions up to, and including, 8.10.2.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This is possible because the plugin grants the edit_at_biz_dirs and publish_at_biz_dirs capabilities to the subscriber role, allowing any subscriber-level user to submit and publish listings without moderation.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","score":6.4},"cwes":["CWE-79"],"references":["https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/directorist/tags/8.9.6/includes/classes/class-add-listing.php#L303","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/directorist/tags/8.9.6/includes/model/SingleListing.php#L1491","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/directorist/tags/8.9.6/templates/single/fields/map.php#L10","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?reponame=&old=3730035%40directorist&new=3730035%40directorist","https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/bdddb715-4c49-419f-a599-51ff0857393a?source=cve"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:59:28.494260111+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-100185","score":0.00245,"percentile":0.15611,"date":"2026-10-26"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
