What is CVE-2025-7658?

The Temporarily Hidden Content plugin for WordPress contains a vulnerability that allows authenticated users with contributor-level access and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting. This security flaw arises from inadequate input sanitization and output escaping in the 'temphc-start' shortcode, enabling attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages. When these pages are accessed, the injected scripts execute, potentially compromising user data and site integrity.
