What is CVE-2026-57722?

The vulnerability in the ShortPixel Enable Media Replace plugin makes it susceptible to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. This occurs due to improper handling of input during web page generation, allowing attackers to inject malicious scripts that can be stored and executed in the context of a user's browser.
