This is due to the plugin not properly validating user input. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to redirect users to potentially malicious sites if they can successfully trick them into clicking on a specially crafted link. Exploitation requires tricking a logged-in user into clicking a crafted logout URL; the victim is fully logged out via wp_logout() before the malicious redirect is issued, making the logout irreversible as part of the attack chain.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:N","score":4.7},"cwes":["CWE-601"],"references":["https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/hide-my-wp/tags/5.5.02/models/Rewrite.php#L1679","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/hide-my-wp/tags/5.5.02/models/Rewrite.php#L1684","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/hide-my-wp/tags/7.0.01/models/Rewrite.php#L1679","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/hide-my-wp/tags/7.0.01/models/Rewrite.php#L1684","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/hide-my-wp/trunk/models/Rewrite.php#L1679"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:55:23.253742848+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-7527","score":0.00395,"percentile":0.33733,"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).
