What is CVE-2025-9219?

The Post SMTP plugin for WordPress, designed for managing SMTP configurations and email notifications, is susceptible to unauthorized data modifications. This vulnerability stems from a lack of capability checks in the 'update_post_smtp_pro_option_callback' function. As a result, authenticated users with Subscriber-level access or higher can enable pro features without the necessary permissions.
