Wordfence blocked 440,000+ exploit attempts against critical unauthenticated RCE flaws in WordPress plugins Super Forms and Elementor Pro.

Wordfence reports mass exploitation of two unauthenticated arbitrary file upload RCE flaws: CVE-2026-14894 in Super Forms (CVSS 9.8, fixed in 6.3.314) and CVE-2026-32475 in Elementor Pro (CVSS 9.0/9.8, fixed in 4.2.2), with over 250,000 and 190,000 blocked exploit attempts respectively. Attackers upload Base64-encoded PHP web shells such as Mushr00w_upl.php to execute code, create administrator accounts, exfiltrate data, or seize sites. Super Forms exploitation began July 14, 2026 and peaked above 40,000 requests on August 18; Elementor Pro attacks started August 19. Successful Elementor Pro exploitation requires a published page with a Form widget containing a File Upload field.
