CVE-2026-15649
The Powerkit – Supercharge your WordPress Site plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Shortcode Attributes in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.19%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
