CVE-2026-84223Kirki 6.0.0 - 6.3.0 - Author+ Stored XSS via Unsanitized SVG Upload

Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

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

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

The Kirki WordPress plugin before 6.3.1 does not sanitize uploaded SVG files while making them uploadable site-wide, allowing users with author-level access and above to upload a file containing JavaScript which is then served from the site's own origin and runs in the session of anyone who opens it.
