CVE-2026-1450
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 rognone plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'mode' parameter in versions up to, and including, 0.6.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
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 · moderate confidenceThe rognone WordPress plugin versions up to 0.6.2 are vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via the 'mode' parameter. The vulnerability stems from insufficient input sanitization and improper output escaping, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript through malicious URLs that trick users into clicking crafted links.

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.
-
Locate the rognone plugin in your WordPress installationCheck the /wp-content/plugins/ directory for a folder named 'rognone' or search for 'rognone' in your WordPress plugins list via wp-admin > PluginsAffected if The rognone plugin folder exists in your plugins directory
-
Determine the installed version of rognone pluginCheck the main plugin file (usually rognone.php) for the 'Version' header comment, or view the plugin details in WordPress admin under Plugins > Installed PluginsAffected if The reported version is 0.6.2 or lower (e.g., 0.6.2, 0.6.1, 0.6.0, etc.)
-
Identify if the 'mode' parameter is processed by the pluginSearch the plugin PHP files for occurrences of '$_GET' or '$_REQUEST' referencing 'mode' parameter, or examine forms/URLs that pass a 'mode' parameter to rognone functionalityAffected if The plugin code reads a 'mode' parameter from URL requests without sanitization
-
Test for the reflected XSS conditionIf the plugin is active and uses the 'mode' parameter, craft a test URL such as yoursite.com/?page=rognone&mode=test"><script>alert(1)</script> and observe if the mode value is reflected unescaped in the HTML outputAffected if The mode parameter value appears verbatim in the page source without HTML encoding (the script tag executes or appears in the page)
You are affected if the rognone plugin is installed with version 0.6.2 or below and the 'mode' parameter is processed by the plugin, causing unsanitized user input to be reflected in HTTP responses.

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 · scopedUpdate the rognone plugin to the latest version beyond 0.6.2 once available, or remove the plugin until a patched version is released.
rognone plugin version 0.6.3 or higher
- Log in to the WordPress admin dashboard
- Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins
- Find the 'rognone' plugin
- Check if an update is available and update to the latest version (higher than 0.6.2)
- Alternatively, download the latest version from the WordPress plugin repository and upload via Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin
