CVE-2026-91831: Subscribe to Comments: Email header injection through sender settings

The Subscribe to Comments WordPress plugin from 2.3 up to, but not including, 2.3.3 does not sanitise newline characters from a notification sender-name setting before using it in e-mail headers, allowing users with Author-level access and above to inject arbitrary e-mail headers, such as a hidden Bcc, and to spoof the sender. The export does not name an endpoint, action, parameter or function beyond the operation described. The CNA narrative names Author access or higher, while the accompanying CVSS vector rates required privileges as high; this source discrepancy is retained rather than substituting a different WordPress role. The completed CNA record identifies 2.3.3 as fixed.

CVE3.8
Oct 16, 2026 CVE-2026-91830
Subscribe to Comments: Sensitive information exposure
The Subscribe to Comments WordPress plugin before 2.3.3 does not sign or validate a cookie it trusts to identify a commenter, allowing unauthenticated attackers to disclose a subscriber's management key and silently alter that subscriber's subscriptions. The export supplies no additional endpoint, action, parameter or function details beyond those described above.

CVE6.5
Oct 11, 2026 CVE-2026-91829
Subscribe to Comments: Cross-site scripting
An unauthenticated attacker can craft a link containing script-bearing target-parameter input. The component reflects that input without sufficient escaping, so a user who follows the link can execute attacker-controlled JavaScript in the site’s origin, including in an administrator’s browser. The export does not disclose the exact endpoint or parameter name. Affected versions: < 2.3.3. The authoritative export identifies 2.3.3 as fixed for this CVE.
