CVE-2026-85000 · EmbedPress < 4.6.8 - Unauthenticated YouTube API Quota Consumption and Database Bloating
This page contains facts from public vulnerability sources. Check the original advisory before updating.
The EmbedPress WordPress plugin before 4.6.8 does not perform any capability or nonce check on an unauthenticated request that triggers a server-side, credential-bearing request to a third-party API and stores attacker-controlled cache entries, allowing unauthenticated attackers to consume the site owner's third-party API quota and write unbounded records into the site's database.
