CVE-2026-112835 · Severity: high · CVSS 7.1 · Published 2026-10-23

VikRentCar is a WordPress plugin that manages car rental bookings and reservations. A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability allows attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages viewed by users, potentially stealing visitor data or hijacking their accounts. An attacker can craft a malicious link that, when clicked by a victim, executes arbitrary JavaScript in their browser within the context of the rental site.
