{"cve":"CVE-2026-2374","nvd":{"published":"2026-05-28T05:16:34.290","modified":"2026-06-17T10:30:51.717","status":"Deferred","description":"The Login No Captcha reCAPTCHA plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the `$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']` superglobal in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.0. This is due to the `authenticate()` function storing the unsanitized output of `basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])` in the `login_nocaptcha_error` WordPress option when a login attempt is made from a non-standard login page (e.g., xmlrpc.php). The `admin_notices()` function then echoes this stored value directly into the admin dashboard HTML without escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute when an administrator with a whitelisted IP address visits the WordPress dashboard within 30 seconds of the attack.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","score":7.2},"cwes":["CWE-79"],"references":["https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/login-recaptcha/tags/1.7.3/login-nocaptcha.php#L281","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/login-recaptcha/tags/1.7.3/login-nocaptcha.php#L377","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/login-recaptcha/trunk/login-nocaptcha.php#L281","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/login-recaptcha/trunk/login-nocaptcha.php#L377","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?sfp_email=&sfph_mail=&reponame=&old=3549342%40login-recaptcha&new=3549342%40login-recaptcha&sfp_email=&sfph_mail="],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:36:28.938604137+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-2374","score":0.00346,"percentile":0.28203,"date":"2026-10-31"},"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).
