CVE-2026-74851: Unknown Pods

High severity, CVSS 7.2. EPSS: 0.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The Pods WordPress plugin before 3.3.9.1 does not correctly compare a display callback against its list of blocked functions, allowing users with the author role and above to execute arbitrary code on the server. Only sites using the restricted display-callback mode are affected, which is the automatic default on installations whose first Pods version predates 3.1.

Affected products

• Unknown Pods: from 3.1.0, before 3.3.9.1 (fixed in 3.3.9.1)
