# CVE-2026-9009: Crawlomatic Multipage Scraper Post Generator \<= 2.7.2 - Authenticated (Author+) Remote Code Execution via 'callback\_raw' Shortcode Attribute

- Severity: CVSS 8.8 (High), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=total
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2026-05-28 · Updated: 2026-05-28

## Affected

- CodeRevolution Crawlomatic Multipage Scraper Post Generator: through 2.7.2

## Description

The Crawlomatic Multipage Scraper Post Generator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.2 via the filter_content function. This is due to passing the attacker-supplied 'callback_raw' shortcode attribute directly into call_user_func() with no sanitization or allowlist validation, relying solely on an is_callable() check that permits dangerous PHP built-ins such as system, shell_exec, exec, passthru, and assert. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to execute code on the server. An identical sink exists for the 'callback' attribute, providing a second independent vector through the same shortcode.
