What is CVE-2025-13307?

The Ocean Modal Window plugin for WordPress prior to version 2.3.3 is susceptible to a critical vulnerability that allows remote code execution. This exploit arises from the modal display logic, which can be manipulated under conditions defined by users with editing capabilities, such as Editors and Administrators. The flawed execution of these conditions, wrapping them in an eval statement that runs on every page, potentially enables attackers to execute arbitrary code from their command, jeopardizing the security of the entire site.

Affected Version(s)

Ocean Modal Window 0 < 2.3.3

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.
