CVE-2026-6972 PUBLISHED

SKT Skill Bar <= 2.6 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting

Assigner: Wordfence
Reserved: 24.04.2026 Published: 05.08.2026 Updated: 05.08.2026

The SKT Skill Bar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the chart_size attribute of the skillwrapper shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.6. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the chart_size attribute, which is concatenated directly into an inline <style> block. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
