{"cve":"CVE-2026-8894","nvd":{"published":"2026-05-27T07:16:17.727","modified":"2026-06-17T11:04:35.487","status":"Deferred","description":"The iWR Tooltip plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's `iwrtooltip` shortcode in versions up to, and including, 1.0. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes in the iwr_tooltip() shortcode handler — the `title` attribute is concatenated directly into an HTML attribute without esc_attr() or any other escaping. 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.","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/iwr-tooltip/tags/1.0/iwr-tooltip.php#L37","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/iwr-tooltip/tags/1.0/iwr-tooltip.php#L41","https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/9dd6433f-cc12-47c7-a641-3da8a6b0f15b?source=cve"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:36:28.938604137+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-8894","score":0.00187,"percentile":0.08325,"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).
