The flaw is WordPress's; your php.ini decides the exposure

CVE-2026-87902 entered CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalogue on 25 September, three days after the advisory and a proof of concept went public. It is a 9.2 and it is WordPress core, patched across 25 branches down to 4.7.37 (December 2016). But 9.2 measures the damage, not your exposure: the CVSS 4.0 vector itself carries AT:P — "conditions are required" — and none of the deciding conditions belong to WordPress. A PHP directive, a PEAR file and a directory inside your active theme. What each one checks, why the obvious command for looking at it from a shell returns a false answer — we measured it on a box running PHP 8.3.6 — and what NOT to do if you suspect it already happened.

It was called .png and inside it was PostScript: the WordPress 7.0.4 flaw

On 12 August WordPress shipped 7.0.4 with a single fix: CVE-2026-65640, remote code execution by uploading a file that announces itself as an image and is PostScript inside. The patch reaches back to the 4.7 branch, from December 2016. For it to affect you two conditions have to hold at once, and the first one is not yours to decide. Why validating the extension does not validate what you think, what "requires Author role" really means, and how to check it in ten minutes.
