litespeed-cacheCVE-2026-76579: LiteSpeed ESI validation and execution use different request values
An unauthenticated attacker must supply a validly signed esi query value while placing a separate malicious esi value in the POST body. With PHP's default request-merge order, the POST value wins at execution even though the query value was validated. Reflected script execution also requires victim interaction. The export does not explain how the attacker obtains the valid signed value; it does not establish signature forgery. Authoritative affected range: <= 7.9. Confirmed remediation: 7.9.1.

CVE-2026-84761
LiteSpeed Cache permits unauthenticated server-side request forgery
LiteSpeed Cache through 7.9 allows an unauthenticated requester to influence a server-side request. The request can reach network resources available to the WordPress host and can expose or alter data returned through the affected flow.

CVE-2026-3129
LiteSpeed image-size processing permits Author-level stored XSS
LiteSpeed Cache through 7.7 uses a flawed regular expression to remove width and height from img tags when Lazy Load Images and Add Missing Sizes are enabled. An Author can craft image attributes that become stored script and execute when a visitor opens the post.

CVE-2026-18978
LiteSpeed comment optimization permits unauthenticated stored XSS
LiteSpeed Cache through 7.8.1 processes crafted decimal character references inside an allowed code element into a malicious data-settings attribute. On sites where previously approved commenters can post again and require_name_email is disabled, an unauthenticated commenter can store script that executes for page visitors.

CVE-2026-3375
LiteSpeed Cache CSS callbacks can store script behind bypassable IP validation
An unauthenticated attacker who can bypass the IP-based QUIC.cloud callback validation under certain reverse-proxy, load-balancer or CDN configurations can submit CSS content to /wp-json/litespeed/v1/notify_ccss or /wp-json/litespeed/v1/notify_ucss. The endpoints save the content to disk without sanitization, and later frontend loads render it inline without output escaping. Injected JavaScript executes in the site's origin when that output is viewed. The exact bypass configuration is unspecified; ordinary unauthenticated access is not enough by itself. Affected versions: <= 7.7. Confirmed fixed release: 7.8, based on the official change filtering HTML tags when saving CSS content.
