CVE-2026-14840YOP Poll < 7.0.6 - Unauthenticated Vote Restriction Bypass via IP Header Spoofing

Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects Unknown YOP Poll. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

The YOP Poll WordPress plugin before 7.0.6 does not validate the connection's origin IP address and instead trusts client-controlled forwarding headers when enforcing its per-IP vote restriction, allowing unauthenticated attackers to bypass the vote limit and cast unlimited votes on a public poll.
