Range from
CVE record (the advisory publisher) · score by Wordfence
Details from the advisory

The Blocksy Companion plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in versions up to, and including, 2.1.58 This is due to the implement_user_registration() AJAX handler explicitly disabling Dokan's vendor-registration nonce check (via add_filter('dokan_register_nonce_check', '__return_false')) and then trusting an attacker-supplied $_POST['role'] value when invoking wc_create_new_customer() and wc_set_customer_auth_cookie(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to elevate their privileges to a Dokan 'seller' (vendor) account — including sites where the Dokan vendor signup is explicitly turned off — and to be auto-authenticated into that account, which grants publishing capabilities beyond those of a normal customer.

Details from the advisory

The Blocksy Companion plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'tagName' Block Attribute (blocksy/dynamic-data) in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.51 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

critical 9.8 CVE-2026-15158 · published 2026-07-09

Arbitrary file upload in Blocksy Companion (2.1.46 and older)

Affected
2.1.46 and older
Fixed in
2.1.47 *
Access needed (per CVSS)
No login needed
Range from
CVE record (the advisory publisher) · score by Wordfence
Details from the advisory

The Blocksy Companion plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.46 via the save_attachments function. This is due to the Custom Fonts extension registering a wp_check_filetype_and_ext filter that approves any filename containing .woff2 or .ttf as a substring via strpos() rather than validating that those strings appear as the final extension via PATHINFO_EXTENSION — allowing double-extension filenames such as shell.woff2.php to pass MIME validation and be handled as permitted font files. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload files that may be executable, which makes remote code execution possible. This vulnerability is only exploitable when the premium version of the plugin (blocksy-companion-pro) is installed with both the WooCommerce Extra (Advanced Reviews) and Custom Fonts extensions active; the free blocksy-companion plugin does not contain the vulnerable code paths.

CVE record (the advisory publisher) · score by Wordfence
Details from the advisory

The Blocksy Companion plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authenticated arbitrary file upload in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.19. This is due to insufficient file type validation detecting SVG files, allowing double extension files to bypass sanitization while being accepted as a valid SVG file. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author level access and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.
