| CVE-2026-89093 | Sep 19, 2026 |
WordPress Better Messages <=2.15.33 Info Exposure via Spoofing (Guest IP)The Better Messages Chat Rooms, Group Chat, Private Messages & AI Chat Bots plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Information Exposure by Spoofing in all versions up to, and including, 2.15.33. This is due to the `is_ai_bot_user()` function identifying privileged internal AI bot accounts by performing a prefix check for `'ai-chat-bot-'` against a guest record's stored IP address, which is populated verbatim from the client-controlled `X-Real-IP` request header during unauthenticated guest registration. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register a guest identity that the plugin treats as its own internal AI bot, bypassing the per-room role allowlist, draft-status check, and join filters which are all short-circuited by the bot check in `user_can_join()` and `user_can_read()` to join administrator-restricted chat rooms, post messages into them, and read the private message history of other users. |

| CVE-2026-89334 | Sep 19, 2026 |
Authorization Bypass in Better Messages Chat Rooms WP Plugin v2.15.33The Better Messages Chat Rooms, Group Chat, Private Messages & AI Chat Bots plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 2.15.33. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with custom-level access and above, to access the full message transcript, thread metadata, and user data of any chat-room thread without authentication. This is only exploitable when the chat room's only_joined_can_read setting retains its default value of '0'. |

| CVE-2026-18555 | Sep 16, 2026 |
Reflected XSS in Better Messages 2.15.22 (WordPress), via icn paramThe Better Messages Chat Rooms, Group Chat, Private Messages & AI Chat Bots plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'icn' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.15.22 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. |

| CVE-2026-84812 | Sep 03, 2026 |

| CVE-2026-16585 | Jul 28, 2026 |
WordPress Better Messages <=2.15.19 Arbitrary File Deletion via delete_stickerThe Better Messages Chat Rooms, Group Chat, Private Messages & AI Chat Bots plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the delete_sticker function in all versions up to, and including, 2.15.19. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, 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). The prefix check intended to restrict deletion to the uploads directory can be bypassed by crafting a URL that begins with the legitimate uploads base URL but embeds ../ traversal sequences in the path portion, as the normalize_sticker function only applies esc_url_raw(), which does not strip ../ sequences, allowing the traversal payload to be stored verbatim in WordPress options. |
