What is CVE-2025-1288?

The WOOEXIM plugin for WordPress, up to version 5.0.0, is susceptible to cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks that can lead to reflected cross-site scripting (XSS). The vulnerability arises due to a lack of CSRF checks in certain areas of the plugin, alongside inadequate input sanitization and escaping. This flaw could potentially expose unauthenticated users to malicious scripts that exploit these weaknesses, thereby compromising the integrity and security of affected sites.

Affected Version(s)

WOOEXIM 0 <= 5.0.0

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
