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-2025-23828 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: sindhi WordPress Data Guard. 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-2025-23828/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-23828/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-23828","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-23828/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-23828","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7qmj-qmfh-8fg9"],"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":"A stored XSS vulnerability in the WordPress Data Guard plugin allows attackers to inject malicious scripts, potentially leading to session hijacking or site defacement.","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-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in sindhi WordPress Data Guard wordpress-data-guards allows Stored XSS.This issue affects WordPress Data Guard: from n/a through \u003c= 8.","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 WordPress Data Guard [Website Security] plugin \u003c= 8 - CSRF to Stored XSS vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-23828","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 Woo Update Variations In Cart plugin \u003c= 0.0.9 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-23829"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Strx Magic Floating Sidebar Maker plugin \u003c= 1.4.1 - CSRF to Stored XSS vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-23827"},"products":["WordPress Data Guard"],"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":"2026-05-11","vendors":["sindhi"]},"summary":"A stored XSS vulnerability in the WordPress Data Guard plugin allows attackers to inject malicious scripts, potentially leading to session hijacking or site defacement.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-23828/"}
