Weakness
CWE-497 — Exposure of Sensitive System Information to an Unauthorized Control Sphere

This CVE was published Jul 23, 2026 and is one of 9 known issues for this plugin.

Update, patch or deactivate.

The authoritative CNA record identifies 2.6.1 as unaffected. Update to 2.6.1 or a later maintained release. The inconclusive author-changelog review does not override that explicit CNA fixed-version evidence. Official author release notes: https://wordpress.org/plugins/mediavine-create/.

A safe version is available, so updating to that version or later is the preferred remediation. If an immediate update is not practical, consider a targeted application patch or temporarily restricting the affected functionality.

Deactivate only when warranted by your risk profile, or when advised by your hosting provider in the limited circumstances where the vulnerability cannot otherwise be mitigated. If you’re unsure which action is appropriate, contact Fused or your hosting provider for guidance.
