CVE-2026-12434
MediumCVSS 4.3Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk15th percentile - higher than 15% of all known CVEs
Summary
The List category posts plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 0.95.0 via the sanitize_status function. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above to extract titles, full content, excerpts, dates, authors, and custom-field metadata of other users' pending-review, scheduled, and trashed posts by embedding a crafted [catlist] shortcode in their own draft and previewing it.
Risk Assessment
The risk involves unauthorized access to confidential content of other users' posts, potentially leading to data leakage, privacy breaches, and exploitation of information before its intended publication.
Recommendation
It is recommended to immediately update the List category posts plugin to the latest available version that fixes this vulnerability, and to restrict user permissions to the minimum necessary.

Mitsubishi Electric products (GENESIS64, ICONICS Suite, Hyper Historian, AnalytiX, MobileHMI, MC Works64) versions 10.97.3 and prior contain an incorrect privilege assignment vulnerability. Installers grant default DCOM permissions to the administrator account, allowing an attacker to locally or remotely launch and operate DCOM objects that should require UAC elevation.
- CVE-2026-16436Critical
Mitsubishi Electric products (GENESIS, GENESIS64, ICONICS Suite, Hyper Historian, AnalytiX, MobileHMI, IoTWorX, MC Works64, GENESIS32, BizViz) contain a weak password recovery mechanism for forgotten passwords. The challenge response used to unlock the system is common to all users and fixed, allowing a remote attacker to unlock the system after obtaining it.
- CVE-2026-102469Critical
The Vert.x DB2 client (vertx-db2-client) deserializes User Defined Type (UDT) column data using a bare ObjectInputStream.readObject() call without an ObjectInputFilter or class allowlist. A malicious or man-in-the-middle DRDA server can send a response with a column tagged as UDT (FDOCA LID 0x50), causing deserialization of attacker-controlled bytes. TLS is disabled by default, making man-in-the-middle exploitation feasible.
Original NVD description (English source)
The List category posts plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 0.95.0 via the sanitize_status. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to extract titles, full content, excerpts, dates, authors, and custom-field metadata of other users' pending-review, scheduled, and trashed posts by embedding a crafted [catlist] shortcode in their own draft and previewing it. This vulnerability is a bypass of the incomplete fix introduced for CVE-2025-11377 in version 0.93.0.
