CVE-2026-104726: Name Directory: Cross-site scripting

The Name Directory plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'dir' Shortcode Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 1.34.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The export supplies no additional endpoint, action, parameter or function details beyond those described above.

CVE6.4
Oct 05, 2026 CVE-2026-104397
Name Directory: Missing authorization
No attacker login is required by the supplied CVSS vector. A caller can reach a protected operation without the intended permission check. The vector indicates limited disclosure of protected information. No victim interaction is required by the vector. The protected resource and exact unauthorized operation are undisclosed. The authoritative export does not identify the vulnerable endpoint, action, parameter or function, so the exact request-to-operation path is undisclosed. Affected versions: <= 1.34.2. The authoritative export identifies 1.34.3 as fixed for this CVE.

CVE5.3
Oct 05, 2026 CVE-2026-104396
Name Directory: Stored cross-site scripting
The supplied CVSS vector requires a low-privilege authenticated account; the minimum WordPress role is not disclosed. Attacker-controlled content is stored and subsequently rendered without sufficient neutralization, allowing script execution in a visitor's browser under the site's origin. A victim must view the affected output; the export does not identify the field or establish that administrators are exposed. The authoritative export does not identify the vulnerable endpoint, action, parameter or function, so the exact request-to-operation path is undisclosed. Affected versions: <= 1.34.2. The authoritative export identifies 1.34.3 as fixed for this CVE.
