What is CVE-2026-75873?

The Zella Theme for WordPress, prior to version 2.6.3, contains a flaw that allows unauthenticated users to upload files without proper capability or nonce checks. This oversight permits the upload of potentially harmful files, including PHP scripts, which can be exploited for remote code execution. As a result, attackers may leverage this vulnerability to gain control over the affected WordPress website and execute malicious commands.

Affected Version(s)

Zella Theme 0 < 2.6.3
