CVE-2026-18143 is a critical (CVSS 9.8) arbitrary file upload flaw in the Addify Request a Quote for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress, through version 2.9.2, that lets unauthenticated attackers upload executable files such as PHP.

What Is It

CVE-2026-18143 is an arbitrary file upload vulnerability (CWE-434) in the afrfq_submit_quote_via_popup() function of the Request a Quote for WooCommerce plugin. The popup upload handler does not check file extensions or MIME types. It passes the raw filename supplied by the attacker straight to move_uploaded_file() as the destination.

As a result, unauthenticated attackers can upload executable files, including PHP files, to a temporary RFQ upload directory that is reachable from the web. The flaw can only be exploited when a public quote rule with the multi-page popup flow is enabled.

Wordfence reported the vulnerability, and NVD published it on September 26, 2026. NVD lists its status as "Received."

Why It Matters

Wordfence scored the flaw 9.8 (Critical) under CVSS 3.1 with the vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H. That means:

Attackers who can put PHP files in a web-accessible directory can often run code on the server. For affected WooCommerce stores, that puts the site and the data it handles at risk.

The supplied data does not include a CISA KEV entry for this CVE, so active exploitation is not confirmed by KEV at this time.

What's Vulnerable

The NVD record lists no specific CPEs.

Patch Status

The supplied NVD record does not name a fixed version, and there is no CISA KEV entry, so no required action or due date is listed.

Site owners running version 2.9.2 or earlier should:
