Last modified
CVE-2026-4032 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 6.1/10 on the CVSS scale. The CodeColorer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'class' parameter in 'cc' comment shortcode in versions up to, and including, 0.10.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.
