Technical description

The OTP Login & Register Woocommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass via OTP Brute Force in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.2. The vulnerability exists because the OTP rate-limit attempt counter in `process_otp_form` is keyed exclusively on the attacker-controlled `xoo_ml_user_ip_data` cookie's `ip_address` field, allowing unlimited counter resets by simply rotating the cookie, while the OTP itself is generated with PHP's non-cryptographic `rand()` function over a default space of only 9,000 possible values (1000–9999), and both the OTP issuance endpoint (`xoo_ml_login_with_otp`) and verification endpoint (`xoo_ml_otp_form_submit`) are registered as unauthenticated `wp_ajax_nopriv` actions with no nonce or capability checks. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to brute-force the OTP for any registered account and obtain a full WordPress authentication session — including for administrator accounts — via `wp_set_auth_cookie()` in `login_user_with_otp()`. Exploitation requires the attacker to know the target user's registered phone number, which is used to trigger OTP issuance via the unauthenticated `xoo_ml_login_with_otp` endpoint.

———The MIPL Grouped Checkout Fields for WooCommerce – Customize & Organize Checkout Fields. plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the `mipl_wc_upload_file` function in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.1. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.5h CVE-2026-840636.5 MED

———The Drag and Drop File Upload for Elementor Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.0 via the elementor_file_upload function. This is due to insufficient file type validation in the is_file_type_valid() function, which uses the attacker-controlled 'type' parameter as regex keys in the MIME allowlist, allowing blacklist bypass via a crafted extension that sanitize_file_name() later normalizes to a PHP extension. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload files that may be executable, which makes remote code execution possible.18h CVE-2026-718059.8 CRI

——0Rara One Click Demo Import plugin for WordPress before 1.3.5 contains an arbitrary file upload vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers with Administrator privileges to upload arbitrary PHP files by passing a false value to wp_handle_upload() that disables WordPress core's file type validation checks across all three file parameters in the process_uploaded_files() function. Attackers can upload a malicious PHP file to the uploads directory and execute it over HTTP to achieve remote code execution in the web server process, with the uploaded file persisting on disk even after plugin deactivation and leaving no media library record to evade standard integrity checks.18h
