CVE-2022-38061Network attack vector

Command execution via exported spreadsheet formulas

Published Sep 23, 2022 · Updated Apr 28, 2026

CSV injection in Export Post Info 1.2.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute commands through exported post data. The CSV export path writes attacker-controlled post fields, including titles, without neutralizing leading spreadsheet formula characters. Author-level access is required to plant the data, and execution occurs only when another user opens the CSV in susceptible spreadsheet software.
