An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-25019 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown SEO Plugin by Squirrly SEO. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25019/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25019/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-25019","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25019/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-25019","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7xm8-fw8m-2w46"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can inject malicious scripts into admin pages via the type parameter, potentially compromising administrator accounts.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"seo_plugin_by_squirrly_seo","vendor":"squirrly"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"The SEO Plugin by Squirrly SEO WordPress plugin before 11.1.12 does not escape the type parameter before outputting it back in an attribute in an admin page, leading to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"SEO Plugin by Squirrly SEO \u003c 11.1.12 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-25019","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"CAOS \u003c 4.1.9 - Admin+ Arbitrary Folder Deletion via Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2021-25020"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"PPOM for WooCommerce \u003c 24.0 - Subscriber+ Settings Update to Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2021-25018"},"products":["SEO Plugin by Squirrly SEO"],"published":"2022-03-21","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"SEO Plugin by Squirrly SEO \u003c= 12.3.19 - Authenticated (Contributor+) SQL Injection via url Parameter","id":"CVE-2024-6497","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-20"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"WordPress SEO Plugin by Squirrly SEO plugin \u003c= 12.4.03 - SQL Injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-22783","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-03-27"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"WordPress Squirrly SEO plugin \u003c= 12.3.19 - SQL Injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-43286","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-08-18"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"WordPress Squirrly SEO - Advanced Pack Plugin \u003c= 2.3.8 is vulnerable to SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2023-50854","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-12-28"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"WordPress SEO Plugin by Squirrly SEO Plugin \u003c= 12.1.10 is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload","id":"CVE-2022-38140","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-28"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"WordPress Squirrly SEO plugin \u003c= 12.4.07 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-24654","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-03-03"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"WordPress Squirrly SEO plugin \u003c= 12.3.16 - Reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-29790","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-27"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Attackers can inject malicious scripts into admin pages via the type parameter, potentially compromising administrator accounts.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25019/"}
