CVE-2026-94589

Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.66%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
The Extensions For CF7 (Contact form 7 Database, Conditional Fields and Redirection) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in all versions up to, and including, 3.4.5 via the extcf7_submit function. This is due to missing file extension, MIME type, and size validation in the signature field's validation_filter(), combined with the absence of PHP-execution guards in the upload directory and a sanitize_file_name() bypass that converts shell.php- into shell.php. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload files that may be executable, which makes remote code execution possible.
