{"id":"CVE-2026-111120","state":"PUBLISHED","title":"VikRentCar Car Rental Management System <= 1.4.8 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to Remote Code Execution via 'condtext_update_tmpl' AJAX Task","description":"The VikRentCar Car Rental Management System plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.8. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the condtext_update_tmpl function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to write arbitrary PHP code to the plugin's executable template files such as site/helpers/email_tmpl.php, which are later include()d by loadEmailTemplate() and loadPdfTemplate(), achieving remote code execution on the server via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link. The injected PHP payload bypasses sanitization because the plugin's own __PHP_OPEN__/__PHP_CLOSE__ placeholder expansion and cleanPHPSourceCode() logic explicitly reverse both sanitize_text_field filtering and saveHTML() HTML-encoding, restoring a literal <?php...?> payload to live PHP before it is written to disk. Successful exploitation additionally requires an action by an administrator — the attacker cannot trigger the vulnerability on their own.","publishedAt":"2026-10-28T06:45:10.550Z","updatedAt":"2026-10-28T16:10:10.199Z","severity":{"score":8.8,"label":"High","version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","source":"Wordfence"},"assigner":"Wordfence","products":["e4jvikwp VikRentCar Car Rental Management System"],"affected":[{"vendor":"e4jvikwp","product":"VikRentCar Car Rental Management System","defaultStatus":"unaffected","versions":[{"version":"0","status":"affected","lessThanOrEqual":"1.4.8","versionType":"semver"}]}],"references":["https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/36f84246-6658-407a-88dd-4b99a784e682?source=cve","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/vikrentcar/tags/1.4.8/admin/controller.php#L9609","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/vikrentcar/tags/1.4.8/admin/controller.php#L9558","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/vikrentcar/tags/1.4.8/admin/helpers/conditional_rules.php#L1003","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/vikrentcar/tags/1.4.8/admin/helpers/conditional_rules.php#L765","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/vikrentcar/tags/1.4.8/admin/helpers/conditional_rules.php#L654","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/vikrentcar/tags/1.4.8/site/helpers/lib.vikrentcar.php#L2685","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?reponame=&old=3755596%40vikrentcar&new=3755596%40vikrentcar"],"weaknesses":["CWE-352"],"ingestedAt":"2026-10-29T20:10:33.477Z","source":{"repository":"CVEProject/cvelistV5","path":"cves/2026/111xxx/CVE-2026-111120.json","commit":"556c9d3a8cd17e218bb8e452ba7cd619a384ff47"},"raw":{"dataType":"CVE_RECORD","dataVersion":"5.2","cveMetadata":{"cveId":"CVE-2026-111120","state":"PUBLISHED","datePublished":"2026-10-28T06:45:10.550Z","dateUpdated":"2026-10-28T16:10:10.199Z","assignerShortName":"Wordfence","assignerOrgId":"b15e7b5b-3da4-40ae-a43c-f7aa60e62599","dateReserved":"2026-10-15T16:35:15.196Z"},"containers":{"cna":{"title":"VikRentCar Car Rental Management System <= 1.4.8 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to Remote Code Execution via 'condtext_update_tmpl' AJAX Task","descriptions":[{"lang":"en","value":"The VikRentCar Car Rental Management System plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.8.
