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-2025-23497 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: albdesign Simple Project Manager. 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-2025-23497/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-23497/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-23497","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-23497/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-23497","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fxw4-q9p2-j9c2"],"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 via CSRF, leading to stored XSS and potential account takeover in Simple Project Manager.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-352","name":"Cross-Site Request Forgery"}],"description":"Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in albdesign Simple Project Manager simple-project-managment allows Stored XSS.This issue affects Simple Project Manager: from n/a through \u003c= 1.2.2.","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":"WordPress Simple Project Manager plugin \u003c= 1.2.2 - CSRF to Stored Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-23497","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Translation.Pro plugin \u003c= 1.0.0 - Reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-23498"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress WP FPO plugin \u003c= 1.0 - Reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-23496"},"products":["Simple Project Manager"],"published":"2025-01-16","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["albdesign"]},"summary":"Attackers can inject malicious scripts via CSRF, leading to stored XSS and potential account takeover in Simple Project Manager.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-23497/"}
