CVE-2026-16787
The Live Composer – Free WordPress Website Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'dslc_custom_field' Shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.19 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.
