CVE-2026-8599MailerPress <= 2.0.4 - Authenticated (Author+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Campaign HTML Content Field
Medium 6.4
In plain English
A medium-severity cross-site scripting in MailerPress – Email Marketing, Newsletter, Email Automation & WooCommerce Emails from mailerpress. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.2% (higher than 14% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
The MailerPress – Email Marketing, Newsletter, Email Automation & WooCommerce Emails plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Campaign HTML Content Field in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The public-facing campaign preview endpoint (/mp-email/{id}-slug/) is not affected by this vulnerability, as it applies a Content-Security-Policy header blocking all inline scripts; exploitation is limited to the admin dashboard preview.
