What is CVE-2025-14312?

The Advance WP Query Search Filter plugin for WordPress versions up to 1.0.10 is susceptible to a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This flaw arises from the failure to properly sanitize and escape parameters before they are output on web pages. Successful exploitation can enable attackers to inject malicious scripts into pages viewed by users, potentially affecting high-privilege accounts, such as administrators. Without appropriate mitigation, this vulnerability may expose sensitive information or allow unauthorized actions within the application.

Affected Version(s)

Advance WP Query Search Filter 0 <= 1.0.10

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.
