🚨 HIGH - Unauthenticated XSS in TablePress WordPress Plugin (CVE-2026-56051) An unauthenticated cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw in the TablePress WordPress plugin allows malicious script content to be injected via user-controlled input rendered by TablePress. The root issue is improper input validation/output escaping, enabling stored or reflected script execution in plugin-generated pages. An attacker can exploit this remotely without authentication by submitting crafted payloads that get displayed to site visitors or admins when viewing affected tables. Successful exploitation results in client-side code execution in the victim’s browser, enabling session hijacking, admin action forgery, credential theft, and potential full site takeover if an admin is targeted. 👉 Affected: tablepress <= 3.3.1 | Upgrade to No fix yet - treat as suspicious
