What is CVE-2026-7465?
The Spectra Gutenberg Blocks plugin for WordPress presents a vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access or higher to execute arbitrary code on the server. The exploit hinges on a two-block payload embedded within post content. The first block creates a deceptive block type with an attacker-defined render_callback, while the second block triggers this callback via call_user_func() during the rendering process of the same page request, potentially compromising the website's integrity.
Affected Version(s)
Spectra Gutenberg Blocks β Website Builder for the Block Editor 0 <= 2.19.25
Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)
