An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-28971 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: CWD Web Designer Easy Elements Hider. 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-2025-28971/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-28971/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-28971","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-28971/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-28971","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-33q9-8xm4-j4g6"],"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":"high_privilege","summary":"Stored XSS in Easy Elements Hider allows attackers to inject scripts, potentially leading to session hijacking or malicious actions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.9,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/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 CWD Web Designer Easy Elements Hider easy-elements-hider allows Stored XSS.This issue affects Easy Elements Hider: from n/a through \u003c= 2.0.","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 Easy Elements Hider plugin \u003c= 2.0 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-28971","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 WP Employee Attendance System plugin \u003c= 3.5 - SQL Injection Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-28972"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress WP Optimize By xTraffic plugin \u003c= 5.1.6 - PHP Object Injection Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-28970"},"products":["Easy Elements Hider"],"published":"2025-07-04","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":["CWD Web Designer"]},"summary":"Stored XSS in Easy Elements Hider allows attackers to inject scripts, potentially leading to session hijacking or malicious actions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-28971/"}
