Remote Code Execution in Widget Logic Visual WordPress Plugin

Publication date: 2026-07-08

Last updated on: 2026-07-08

Assigner: Wordfence

Description
The Widget Logic Visual plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 1.52 via the widget_logic_visual_check_visibility function. This is due to missing capability check and nonce verification on the widget-logic-update-conditional-tags AJAX action combined with insufficient sanitization of the 'nwlv[cod-tag]' parameter before storage and subsequent use in an eval() call. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to execute code on the server.

Executive Summary

The Widget Logic Visual plugin for WordPress has a Remote Code Execution vulnerability in all versions up to and including 1.52. This occurs because the widget_logic_visual_check_visibility function lacks proper capability checks and nonce verification on the widget-logic-update-conditional-tags AJAX action. Additionally, the 'nwlv[cod-tag]' parameter is not sufficiently sanitized before being stored and later used in an eval() call. This allows authenticated users with subscriber-level access or higher to execute arbitrary code on the server.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can have severe impacts as it allows attackers with low-level authenticated access (subscriber or above) to execute arbitrary code on the server. This can lead to full compromise of the affected WordPress site, including unauthorized data access, data modification, site defacement, installation of malware, or use of the server for further attacks.
