Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-25098 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Zack Katz Links in Captions. 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-2025-25098/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-25098/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-25098","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-25098/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-25098","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2594-xm94-jr3q"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Stored XSS in WordPress Links in Captions plugin allows attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages viewed by other users.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/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 Zack Katz Links in Captions links-in-captions allows Stored XSS.This issue affects Links in Captions: from n/a through \u003c= 1.2.","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 Links in Captions plugin \u003c= 1.2 - Stored Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-25098","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 Appointment Buddy Widget By Accrete plugin \u003c= 1.2. - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-25099"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress External \"Video for Everybody\" plugin \u003c= 2.1.1 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-25097"},"products":["Links in Captions"],"published":"2025-02-07","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":["Zack Katz"]},"summary":"Stored XSS in WordPress Links in Captions plugin allows attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages viewed by other users.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-25098/"}
