WordPress, WordPress Core
Description
WordPress WordPress Core contains a time-of-check time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition vulnerability that could allow unauthenticated attackers to execute code on the server during the upgrade window. This is due to predictable, web-accessible staging paths used during full-package core upgrades.
CVSS severity
High (8.1/10)CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Sourced from NVD, reflects how severe this vulnerability is if exploited, not whether it has been. Every advisory on this page is already a CISA-confirmed active exploitation case regardless of its CVSS score.
EPSS, exploit probability
Low0.60%
estimated chance of real-world exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 48.8% of every CVE FIRST.org scores
Refreshed 11/3/2026, via FIRST.org's EPSS model, not CVSS, this measures likelihood of exploitation, not how severe it would be.
Required action
Apply mitigations in accordance with vendor instructions, ensuring compliance with CISA’s BOD 26-04 Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk (see URL in Notes) guidance and CISA’s “Forensics Triage Requirements” (see URL in Notes). Follow applicable BOD 26-04 guidance for cloud services or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable. Stakeholders are responsible for evaluating each asset's internet exposure and ensuring adherence to BOD 26-04 patching guidelines.
