CVE-2026-15099WP Delicious <= 1.10.2 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'steps' Block Attribute
Medium 6.4
In plain English
A medium-severity cross-site scripting in WP Delicious – Recipe Plugin for Food Bloggers (formerly Delicious Recipes) from wpdelicious. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.3% (higher than 26% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
The Delicious Recipes plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'steps' block attribute in versions up to, and including, 1.10.2. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the wrap_direction_text() function, which interpolates the user-supplied href value from nested link nodes ($node['props']['href']) directly into an anchor tag via sprintf() at line 1627 without esc_url() or any URL scheme validation. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts (including javascript: URIs) in pages that will execute whenever a user (such as an editor or administrator previewing the pending post) accesses an injected page and clicks the malicious link.
