cwe CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')
published Dec 12, 2025
The Custom Post Type UI plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'label' parameter during custom post type import in all versions up to, and including, 1.18.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the Tools → Get Code page.
Custom Post Type UI <= 1.18.0 - Missing Authorization to Unauthenticated (Previously Administrator+) Custom Post Type Modification

cvss score 4.8
cwe CWE-862: Missing Authorization
published Dec 3, 2025
The Custom Post Type UI plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.18.0. This is due to the plugin not verifying that a user has the required capability to perform actions in the "cptui_process_post_type" function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber level access and above, to add, edit, or delete custom post types in limited situations.
