CVE-2026-15457
The Kirki – Freeform Page Builder, Website Builder & Customizer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 6.0.13 via the 'family' parameter.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.14%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
