What to do

Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (wordpress 7.1.2; wordpress-multisite 7.1.2), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.

This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2026-87902

Advisory: BIT-wordpress-2026-87902
IDs: CVE-2026-87902, GHSA-7hp8-65ch-5whp
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2026-87902 (revision 3, source checked 7 Nov 2026, 06:35 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Unrated
Exploitation: confirmed: listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: wordpress 7.1.2; wordpress-multisite 7.1.2. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- Bitnami wordpress: affected < 7.1.2; fixed in 7.1.2
- Bitnami wordpress-multisite: affected < 7.1.2; fixed in 7.1.2

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Bitnami wordpress: check the installed version with your package manager.
- Bitnami wordpress-multisite: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on wordpress, wordpress-multisite.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
