- CVE-2026-16586Medium
The Contest Gallery plugin for WordPress up to version 30.0.7 is vulnerable to second-order SQL injection via the cg_multiple_files_for_post and cgRealId parameters.

- CVE-2026-16055High
The Contest Gallery WordPress plugin before 30.0.7 does not route its front-end login through the standard WordPress authentication flow, issuing an authentication cookie directly after the password check, which bypasses installed brute-force-protection and two-factor-authentication. This enables unlimited, unthrottled password guessing against any account (including administrators) up to full account takeover.
- CVE-2026-16057Medium
The Contest Gallery WordPress plugin before version 30.0.7 fails to perform capability or nonce checks in one of its post-deletion handlers, relying only on a coarse role-membership test. This allows any Author-level or higher user to permanently delete arbitrary posts, pages, and other content they do not own.
