CVE-2026-111464 is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. No public exploit code is tracked. It is rated CVSS 5.9 (medium) and affects WP Fastest Cache – WordPress Cache Plugin; no fixed version is listed yet.

## Summary

The WP Fastest Cache plugin for WordPress, a caching tool, is affected on sites running WordPress Multisite with public registration enabled. A flaw causes it to store the account activation page in a publicly reachable cache file, which can let an unauthenticated visitor read the username and temporary password of the most recently activated new user.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- emrevona WP Fastest Cache – WordPress Cache Plugin: through 1.5.3

## Description

The WP Fastest Cache plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.5.3. The plugin caches the response of Core’s wp-activate.php without honoring its no-store/no-cache headers, the wp-activate-* cookie, or the WP_INSTALLING state, writing the credential-bearing activation response to a publicly accessible cache file. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to retrieve the plaintext username and twelve-character password of the most recently activated Multisite registrant from that cached wp-activate.php response. Exploitation requires a Multisite subdirectory installation with public user and site registration enabled, and the credentials are only exposed after a genuine registrant follows their activation link.
