Getshortcodes

First CVE: Jul 7, 2017Active for: 9 yearsTotal CVEs: 25
20.4
VTI Score
Low

Getshortcodes develops a WordPress plugin ecosystem centered on its Shortcodes Ultimate product, a widely adopted tool for non-developers to add dynamic content to websites through template shortcode functionality. The vendor's vulnerability profile reflects the attack surface inherent to a user-facing content-generation plugin: recurring weakness classes cluster around improper input neutralization and cross-site scripting, cross-site request forgery, and authorization and access-control gaps, with a meaningful share reaching serious severity. These classes are characteristic of plugins that bridge admin interfaces, user input, and front-end rendering without rigorous validation boundaries. Defenders deploying this plugin should prioritize administrative access restrictions, keep the product updated, and monitor for authorization-bypass conditions that could allow unauthorized content modification or injection. Current vulnerability counts, severity distribution, and in-the-wild activity are shown alongside this summary.
