Once the site's Freemius opt-in is complete (the normal state after an administrator clicks \"Allow & Continue\"), the handler processes the 'purchased_plan' request parameter on any wp-admin request from an authenticated user without any capability, nonce, or purchase validation, and stores it in a persistent, site-wide administrative notice. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute automatically when an administrator views a standard admin page such as their Profile page.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-10-29T05:30:31.921+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-29T10:45:42.261+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"Password Protected – Protect Your Site Content With a Password","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"saadiqbal\",\n                    \"product\": \"Password Protected – Protect Your Site Content With a Password\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"0\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"2.8.4\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        }\n                    ],\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\"\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","score":6.4,"severity":"MEDIUM"}],"references":["https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/0c0fe97a-a9e4-46e0-bb53-135c2d9a69a4?source=cve","https://ti.wordfence.io/vendors/patch/3925/download","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?reponame=&new=3766681%40password-protected%2Ftags%2F2.8.5&old=3627972%40password-protected%2Ftags%2F2.8.4"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-93293","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-93293","identifiers":["CVE-2026-93293"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
