What is CVE-2026-9662?
CVE-2026-9662 is a high-severity path traversal vulnerability in plasmatizemedia Recover Exit For WooCommerce, published on 9 Jun 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.
Official description
The Recover Exit For WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to and including 1.0.3. This is due to insufficient validation and sanitization of the user-controlled `tpf` POST parameter before it is used in an `include()` path in the `recover_exit()` function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to perform path traversal and include unintended local PHP files, which can lead to sensitive information exposure and, in certain deployment chains, code execution.
