What is CVE-2026-111974?

The GiveWP WordPress plugin, versions prior to 4.19.0.1, exhibits a critical flaw in its donation processing system. This vulnerability permits unauthenticated users to bypass defined payment limits by allowing donations under the configured minimum amounts. By not adequately restricting the currencies and validating donation amounts against the accepted standards, the plugin presents a door for potential misuse, threatening the integrity of financial transactions. Sites using this plugin should upgrade to the latest version to mitigate this security risk.

Affected Version(s)
