CVE-2026-74851 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.2/10 on the CVSS scale. The Pods WordPress plugin before 3.3.9.1 does not correctly compare a display callback against its list of blocked functions, allowing users with the author role and above to execute arbitrary code on the server. Only sites using the restricted display-callback mode are affected, which is the automatic default on installations whose first Pods version predates 3.1.. EPSS estimates a 0.21% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
