CWE-79 · Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

The Seraphinite Accelerator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'seraph_accel_prep' parameter in versions up to, and including, 2.29.15. This is due to the CacheExtractPreparePageParams() function using PHP's loose inequality operator (!=) to compare the expected HMAC string against the JSON-decoded 'nonce' value — supplying the JSON boolean true causes any non-empty HMAC string to compare as loosely equal, bypassing the signature check — combined with insufficient output escaping in the _CbContentFinishSkip() function, which concatenates the attacker-controlled 'selfTest' field directly into the HTML response body. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a specially crafted link.

6.1 Medium Affected All – 2.29.18 Patched in ✓ 2.29.19 Published 4 Aug 2026 CVE CVE-2026-17532
CWE-200 · Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor

The Seraphinite Accelerator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 2.28.14 via the `seraph_accel_api` AJAX action with `fn=GetData`. This is due to the `OnAdminApi_GetData()` function not performing any capability checks. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to retrieve sensitive operational data including cache status, scheduled task information, and external database state.

4.3 Medium Affected All – 2.28.14 Patched in ✓ 2.28.15 Published 3 Mar 2026 CVE CVE-2026-3058
CWE-862 · Missing Authorization

The Seraphinite Accelerator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the `seraph_accel_api` AJAX action with `fn=LogClear` in all versions up to, and including, 2.28.14. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to clear the plugin's debug/operational logs.

4.3 Medium Affected All – 2.28.14 Patched in ✓ 2.28.15 Published 3 Mar 2026 CVE CVE-2026-3056
CWE-352 · Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)

The Seraphinite Accelerator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 2.27.21. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the 'OnAdminApi_CacheOpBegin' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to perform several administrative actions, including deleting the cache, via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

4.3 Medium Affected All – 2.27.21 Patched in ✓ 2.27.22 Published 29 Apr 2025 CVE CVE-2025-6059
CWE-200 · Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor

The Seraphinite Accelerator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 2.22.15 (2.21.13 PRO). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to extract sensitive user or configuration data.

4.3 Medium Affected All – 2.22.15 Patched in ✓ 2.22.16 Published 19 Dec 2024 CVE CVE-2024-54222
