CVE-2026-78068Network attack vector

Contributor-level stored XSS via unsanitized table cells

Published Oct 10, 2026 · Updated Oct 10, 2026

Stored XSS in Table Field Add-on for ACF and SCF 1.3.35 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject scripts via table cells. The table-cell content path inadequately sanitizes input and escapes output, allowing stored script markup to execute when an injected page is accessed. Contributor-level access or higher is required to inject content; the reported consequence is script execution in the visiting browser, not server-side code execution.
