CVE-2026-0807
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedThe Frontis Blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.6. This is due to insufficient restriction on the 'url' parameter in the 'template_proxy' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to make web requests to arbitrary locations originating from the web application via the '/template-proxy/' and '/proxy-image/' endpoint.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceThe Frontis Blocks WordPress plugin versions up to 1.1.6 contain an unauthenticated Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the 'template_proxy' function. Attackers can supply arbitrary URLs via the 'url' parameter through the '/template-proxy/' or '/proxy-image/' endpoints, causing the server to make requests to attacker-controlled locations.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm Frontis Blocks plugin is installedCheck the WordPress plugin directory for the Frontis Blocks plugin folder, typically at /wp-content/plugins/frontis-blocks/ or via WP-CLI: wp plugin list --name='frontis-blocks'Affected if The plugin folder exists in the WordPress installation
-
Identify installed plugin versionRead the main plugin file header for the Version field, e.g., /wp-content/plugins/frontis-blocks/frontis-blocks.php, or use WP-CLI: wp plugin get frontis-blocks --field=versionAffected if The version number is 1.1.6 or lower
-
Test vulnerable endpoint accessibilitySend a GET request to /wp-json/frontis/v1/template-proxy/?url=http://example.com (or /template-proxy/ and /proxy-image/ endpoints) and observe if the server attempts to fetch the URLAffected if The endpoint responds and appears to accept a url parameter without authentication
-
Verify SSRF behavior existsSupply an arbitrary URL in the 'url' parameter (e.g., pointing to a controlled test server or internal IP) and check if the server makes an outbound request to that locationAffected if The server successfully fetches and returns content from the attacker-supplied URL, confirming SSRF is possible
A defender is affected if Frontis Blocks plugin version 1.1.6 or lower is installed AND the /template-proxy/ or /proxy-image/ endpoints are accessible without authentication and accept arbitrary URLs in the url parameter.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedImplement strict allowlist-based validation for the 'url' parameter to restrict requests to trusted domains only, or disable the proxy functionality if not required. Update to version 1.1.7 or later when available.
Latest version available in WordPress plugin repository (newer than 1.1.6)
- 1. Navigate to the WordPress plugin repository and check for the latest version of the Frontis Blocks plugin
- 2. Upgrade the Frontis Blocks plugin to the latest available version (newer than 1.1.6)
- 3. Verify the update was successful by checking the installed version in WordPress admin under Plugins
- 4. Confirm the '/template-proxy/' and '/proxy-image/' endpoints are no longer accessible or have been patched
