What is CVE-2025-10289?

CVE-2025-10289 is a medium-severity SQL injection vulnerability in wssoffice21 YMC Filter, published on 13 Dec 2025. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

The Filter & Grids plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'phrase' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.0 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. This only works on MariaDB as the query results in a syntax error on MySQL.
