Really Simple Security (Free) < 9.8.3 - Unauthenticated Unbounded Option Growth via Spoofed Client IP Header

Published Sep 18, 2026 · Updated Sep 18, 2026 · Assigned by WPScan

Description

The Really Simple Security WordPress plugin before 9.8.3 does not validate a client-supplied address value before using it as a storage key in one of its own options, allowing unauthenticated attackers to grow that option without bound and to slow the site's handling of missing pages.
