CVE-2026-1373 describes a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Easy Author Image plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 1.7. This flaw allows authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level privileges or higher to inject malicious web scripts through the 'author_profile_picture_url' parameter due to inadequate input sanitization and output escaping. The vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 6.4 (Medium), indicating a network-based attack with low complexity, requiring low privileges, and resulting in low impact to confidentiality and integrity. Successful exploitation could lead to arbitrary script execution in a user's browser when they access an affected page. Currently, there is no evidence of active exploitation, and no public exploit code is available for Metasploit, Nuclei, or ExploitDB. Community discussion and media coverage are minimal, which is typical for the vast majority of CVEs.
