CVE-2009-3555
CriticalSummary
The TLS protocol and SSL 3.0 and earlier versions, used in various products including Microsoft IIS and Apache HTTP Server, improperly associate renegotiation with existing connections. This allows man-in-the-middle attackers to inject data into HTTPS sessions via unauthenticated requests.
Risk Assessment
Organizations may be exposed to attacks that allow data injection into protected sessions, potentially leading to the disclosure of sensitive information or data manipulation.
Recommendation
It is recommended to update software to the latest versions that mitigate this vulnerability and implement additional security measures such as monitoring network traffic.

The Advanced Custom Fields: Extended PRO plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Limited Code Injection in all versions up to, and including, 0.9.2.6 via the render_field function. Insufficient validation of form configuration parameters allows unauthenticated attackers to call arbitrary WordPress functions with controlled arguments.
- CVE-2026-120518Critical
The BuddyPress XProfile Image Field plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.0. The bpxp_image_field_update_on_user_activation() function calls unlink() on a path built from visitor-supplied signup metadata without realpath() resolution, containment check, or extension allow-list.

The s2Member plugin for WordPress in versions up to and including 260927 is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution via the 'item_name' parameter. Insufficient sanitization in strip_php_tags_deep() only strips literal '<?' sequences, and a post-interpolation placeholder cleanup reassembles a valid '<?php' opener after the attacker-controlled value has already been embedded in the email template.
- CVE-2026-97718Critical
CVE-2026-97718 is a cross-site request forgery vulnerability in version 14.60 of the Secure Access server. Because of a bypassed security control, an attacker can cause an admin to create an account under their control.
- CVE-2026-116769Critical
CVE-2026-116769 is an authentication bypass vulnerability in Secure Access servers starting with version 13.0 and prior to 14.61. Attackers can modify security settings of a client via the server.
- CVE-2026-102435Critical
The Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the _getObjAttr function in all versions up to, and including, 3.5.54. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files on the server, which can easily lead to remote code execution when the right file is deleted (such as wp-config.php). This requires the PDF Generator add-on to be active and a Contact Form 7 form to be configured for PDF generation.

Original NVD description (English source)
The TLS protocol, and the SSL protocol 3.0 and possibly earlier, as used in Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 7.0, mod_ssl in the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.14 and earlier, OpenSSL before 0.9.8l, GnuTLS 2.8.5 and earlier, Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) 3.12.4 and earlier, multiple Cisco products, and other products, does not properly associate renegotiation handshakes with an existing connection, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to insert data into HTTPS sessions, and possibly other types of sessions protected by TLS or SSL, by sending an unauthenticated request that is processed retroactively by a server in a post-renegotiation context, related to a "plaintext injection" attack, aka the "Project Mogul" issue.
