Unauthenticated arbitrary header injection via WPACUnapproved
Published Sep 2, 2026 · Updated Sep 2, 2026
HTTP header injection in DLX Plugins Ajaxify Comments before 3.2 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary headers into responses. The WPACUnapproved query value is returned in the X-WPAC-UNAPPROVED response header without sufficient sanitization or escaping. No account is required, but exploitation requires user interaction, and the published proof of concept is documented only for PHP before 8.
