What is CVE-2026-3895?
CVE-2026-3895 is a medium-severity missing authorization vulnerability in WPBakery Page Builder Addons by Livemesh, published on 27 May 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.
Official description
The WPBakery Page Builder Addons by Livemesh plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the `lvca_admin_ajax` AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 3.9.4 due to missing authorization checks and insufficient input sanitization. The AJAX handler verifies a nonce but does not check user capabilities. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access and above to modify plugin settings and inject malicious scripts that execute when administrators access the plugin settings page or when any user visits the frontend.
