Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-31420 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Tomdever wpForo Forum. 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-2025-31420/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-31420/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-31420","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-31420/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-31420","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gwr7-g7gq-m3v3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker can escalate privileges in the wpForo Forum plugin due to incorrect privilege assignment, requiring an upgrade to secure the site.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.6,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-266","name":"Incorrect Privilege Assignment"}],"description":"Incorrect Privilege Assignment vulnerability in Tomdever wpForo Forum wpforo allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects wpForo Forum: from n/a through \u003c= 2.4.2.","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 wpForo Forum plugin \u003c= 2.4.2 - Privilege Escalation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-31420","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Srbtranslatin plugin \u003c= 3.2.0 - Sensitive Data Exposure vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-31421"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Churel plugin \u003c= 1.0.8 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-31419"},"products":["wpForo Forum"],"published":"2025-04-04","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":"2026-04-29","vendors":["Tomdever"]},"summary":"An attacker can escalate privileges in the wpForo Forum plugin due to incorrect privilege assignment, requiring an upgrade to secure the site.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-31420/"}
