      <title>CVE-2026-100159 — Popup Box 6.4.1 - 6.4.2 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary Shortcode Execution via Client-IP / X-Forwarded-For HTTP Headers</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-100159</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; ays-pro Popup Box – Create Countdown, Coupon, Video, Contact Form Popups&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Popup Box plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary Shortcode Execution in versions 6.4.1 to 6.4.2. This is due to the ays_popup_get_user_ip() function reading the client-controlled Client-IP / X-Forwarded-For / Forwarded / X-Forwarded / Forwarded-For request headers, sanitizing them only with sanitize_text_field() (which does not strip the bracket, quote, space, or &amp;#39;=&amp;#39; characters used by shortcode syntax), substituting the value into a popup body wherever the %%user_ip_address%% token appears (a raw str_replace with no escaping in Ays_Pb_Data::replace_message_variables()), and then passing the resulting body to do_shortcode() in Ays_Pb_Public::ays_autoembed() at output on the wp_footer hook. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary registered shortcodes with attacker-supplied attributes on the server whenever an administrator has added the %%user_ip_address%% token to a popup&amp;#39;s Custom Content body, which can be leveraged to read arbitrary data or perform other actions exposed by shortcodes installed on the site.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
