WebPros International has released security updates that remediate three Critical vulnerabilities in the cPanel & WHM hosting management platform.

The company disclosed the fixes on September 29, 2026, addressing the identifiers CVE-2026-93698, CVE-2026-93697, and CVE-2026-93029. All three issues were rated Critical under the four-tier severity scale.

CVE-2026-93698 – Remote Command Execution via Multilang adminbin

CVE-2026-93698 is an input validation flaw in the Multilang adminbin component. An attacker with a low-privileged account can supply crafted input that results in arbitrary operating system commands being executed with root privileges. Successful exploitation could grant full control over managed accounts, websites, and databases. The vulnerability received a CVSS v3.0 base score of 9.9.

Stored XSS Vulnerabilities in WHM Interfaces

The remaining two issues are stored cross-site scripting (XSS) flaws. CVE-2026-93697 resides in the WHM Mass Modify Accounts interface. A user without administrative rights can store malicious scripts that later execute within an authenticated WHM administrator session, enabling actions to be performed with full administrative privileges.

The third identifier, CVE-2026-93029, is also classified as a stored XSS vulnerability, though fewer technical details were provided in the initial advisory.

Administrators are strongly encouraged to apply the September 29, 2026 security release immediately to eliminate the risk of remote code execution and session hijacking.
