CVE-2026-8607
Description
The Points Management System For Gamification, Ranks, Badges, and Loyalty Rewards Program – myCred plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'wrap' Shortcode Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 3.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
Summary dbcve.org
The myCred WordPress plugin versions up to 3.1 contain a stored XSS vulnerability in the shortcode handler for the 'wrap' attribute. Authenticated users with contributor-level permissions can inject malicious JavaScript through the shortcode, which persists in the database and executes when other users view affected pages due to missing input sanitization and output escaping.
Mitigation
Update myCred plugin to version 3.2 or later which includes proper sanitization of the 'wrap' shortcode parameter and output escaping. Alternatively, restrict shortcode usage to administrator-level users until the patch is applied.
