Remote code execution in WordPress plugins
Remote code execution means an attacker can make your server run code of their choosing. This includes code injection in PHP and command injection, where input ends up in a shell command. It is the worst outcome a plugin bug can have: whoever exploits it controls the site and often everything else in the same hosting account.
Attackers scan for these within days of disclosure. A record that needs no login and has a critical score should be treated as urgent.
What to do: update immediately, or deactivate and delete the plugin if no fix exists. If the site ran a vulnerable version, assume it may have been compromised: look for new admin users, unfamiliar PHP files in wp-content/uploads, and changed core files, or run a free scan.
Worried a plugin bug was used on your site?
The free scan reads the public side of your site and looks for spam pages, hidden redirects, injected scripts and blacklist entries. No login, no install, about a minute.

Where this data comes from
- Vulnerabilities: NIST National Vulnerability Database (NVD), checked 2026-11-04. This product uses data from the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.
- Plugin versions, update dates and install counts: the wordpress.org Plugins API.
- These lists cover the 3,948 plugins in our catalogue, not every plugin on wordpress.org. We only list a CVE for a plugin when its references or its advisory name that exact plugin, so a few real issues may be missing. Spot an error? Email Daniel.
