What is CVE-2025-2247?

The WP-PManager plugin for WordPress, through version 1.2, lacks proper CSRF protection when updating settings. This oversight allows an attacker with administrative access to exploit the vulnerability, potentially altering configurations through unauthorized requests if the admin is tricked into performing a specific action. Proper validation mechanisms must be implemented to prevent such attacks and ensure the integrity of the application.

Affected Version(s)

WP-PManager 0 <= 1.2

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.
