What is CVE-2026-10834?
CVE-2026-10834 is a medium-severity path traversal vulnerability in Unknown WP Travel Engine, published on 7 Jul 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.
Official description
The WP Travel Engine WordPress plugin before 6.8.1 does not properly validate the source of a user-supplied profile image path before moving the file, allowing authenticated users with subscriber-level access and above to relocate arbitrary files within the WordPress uploads directory into their own profile-image path. This removes the targeted media from its original location and can break content across the site.
