Technical description

The TranslatePress – Translate Multilingual sites with AI Translation plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Content (URL-encoded gettext markers) in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Comment moderation may delay exploitation for first-time commenters, but does not prevent it, as the payload uses only WordPress-permitted tags and attributes with percent-encoded characters that pass wp_kses URL validation unmodified.

CVE-2026-714974.7 MED

—

———jsoup is a Java library for working with real-world HTML. From 1.14.3 until 1.23.1, jsoup's HTML parser could incorrectly handle a malformed tag name ending in a control character, causing the tag to acquire the parsing behavior of a different element. When a custom Safelist permits certain raw-text elements, this misparsing can cause content that should remain inert text to be emitted as active markup after serialization, potentially resulting in cross-site scripting. jsoup's built-in Safelists are not affected. This issue is fixed in version 1.23.1.5h CVE-2026-714786.1 MED

———league/commonmark is a PHP library for parsing and rendering CommonMark Markdown. From 1.5.0 until 2.9.0, the AttributesExtension's href and src unsafe-link filter can be bypassed by embedding control bytes, such as a tab, carriage return, line feed, or leading C0 control character, in a javascript: URL that browsers discard before parsing the scheme, causing the browser to still execute the script even when the unsafe-link filter is enabled. This issue is fixed in 2.9.0.5h CVE-2026-71447—

———AIL Project contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the translation controls displayed for chat messages and forum posts. The affected templates inserted message and post identifiers directly into inline JavaScript onclick handlers: onclick="translateMessageToPreferredLanguage('{{ message['id'] }}', '{{ mess_id_escape }}', this)" and: onclick="translatePostToPreferredLanguage('{{ post['id'] }}', '{{ post_id_escape }}', this)" These values were HTML-template escaped but were not safely encoded for use as JavaScript string literals inside an HTML attribute. A specially crafted identifier containing quotation marks, escape characters, or other JavaScript syntax could therefore terminate the expected string argument and inject arbitrary JavaScript into the event handler. Because the affected values are associated with indexed chat messages or forum posts, a malicious value may remain stored by AIL and be rendered whenever an analyst accesses the corresponding chat or forum explorer view. Successful exploitation requires the victim to click the affected Translate to preferred language button. The injected code would then execute in the victim’s browser under the security origin of the AIL instance.5h CVE-2026-71446—

———AIL Framework contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the crawler domain view. Crawled URLs were embedded directly into the JavaScript onclick handler used to display a stored screenshot, without context-appropriate encoding. An attacker who can cause a specially crafted URL to be recorded in the crawler history can inject JavaScript syntax into the stored URL value. The payload remains stored by AIL and is subsequently included in the domain view. When an authenticated analyst clicks the screenshot icon associated with the malicious URL, the injected JavaScript executes in the analyst’s browser within the security context of the AIL Framework application. Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to access information available to the analyst’s session, modify displayed content, or perform application actions using the analyst’s privileges. Exploitation requires the victim to interact with the affected screenshot entry. The vulnerability was corrected by serializing the crawled URL with Jinja’s tojson filter before inserting it into the JavaScript handler. This safely escapes characters that could otherwise terminate the JavaScript string and introduce executable code.5h CVE-2026-71445—

———AIL Framework contained a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability in the /tag/add_tags endpoint. When an error occurred while processing a tag operation, the application returned the error value directly as an HTML response using str(res[0]). If attacker-controlled input was included in the generated error message, a crafted request could cause arbitrary HTML or JavaScript to be reflected in the response without appropriate output encoding. An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by convincing an authenticated AIL Framework user to open a specially crafted link. Successful exploitation could allow JavaScript to execute in the victim’s browser within the security context of the AIL Framework application. Depending on the victim’s privileges and the application’s protections, the attacker could perform actions using the victim’s session, access information available to the victim, or modify data through authenticated application requests. The vulnerability requires user interaction because the authenticated victim must follow or open the crafted request. The attacker does not necessarily require an AIL Framework account, provided that the crafted request can be delivered to an already authenticated user.5h CVE-2026-714356.1 MED

———Statamic is a Laravel and Git powered content management system (CMS). Prior to 5.74.3 and 6.24.2, the default ("automagic") form notification email rendered user-submitted values without escaping, allowing an unauthenticated form submitter to inject HTML into the notification emails sent to the configured recipients. This issue is fixed in versions 5.74.3 and 6.24.2.5h
