The plugin caches the response of Core’s wp-activate.php without honoring its no-store/no-cache headers, the wp-activate-* cookie, or the WP_INSTALLING state, writing the credential-bearing activation response to a publicly accessible cache file. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to retrieve the plaintext username and twelve-character password of the most recently activated Multisite registrant from that cached wp-activate.php response. Exploitation requires a Multisite subdirectory installation with public user and site registration enabled, and the credentials are only exposed after a genuine registrant follows their activation link.","severity":{"version":"3.1","score":5.9,"vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","level":"medium","assessor":"cna","from":"cve"},"epss":{"day":"2026-11-10","score":0.00417,"percentile":0.3628,"model":"v2026.06.15"},"facts":{"in_kev":false,"known_exploited":false,"public_exploit":false,"fix_available":false},"cwes":["CWE-524"],"published":"2026-11-03T02:31:19Z","modified":"2026-11-03T14:17:24Z","products":[{"vendor":"emrevona","product":"wp fastest cache – wordpress cache plugin"}],"references":[{"url":"https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/83539a88-b90e-49f0-a599-b3f83b2d97b9?source=cve"},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-fastest-cache/tags/1.5.2/inc/cache.php#L1027"},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-fastest-cache/tags/1.5.2/inc/cache.php#L452"},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-fastest-cache/tags/1.5.2/inc/cache.php#L567"},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-fastest-cache/tags/1.5.2/inc/cache.php#L1400"},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-fastest-cache/tags/1.5.2/inc/cache.php#L83"},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3749897/wp-fastest-cache"},{"url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-111464"},{"url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-8338-x748-jf52"}],"sources":{"cve":[{"id":"CVE-2026-111464","title":"WP Fastest Cache \u003c= 1.5.3 - Unauthenticated Sensitive Information Exposure via Cached wp-activate.php Response","description":"The WP Fastest Cache plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.5.3.
