Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-39434 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Scott Taylor Avatar. 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-2025-39434/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-39434/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-39434","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-39434/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-39434","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-23pm-fv72-xcr5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can bypass access controls to read or modify data via insecure direct object references in the Avatar plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-639","name":"Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key"}],"description":"Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key vulnerability in Scott Taylor Avatar avatar allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects Avatar: from n/a through \u003c= 0.1.4.","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 Avatar plugin \u003c= 0.1.4 - Insecure Direct Object References (IDOR) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-39434","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress My Marginalia plugin \u003c= 1.0.6 - CSRF to Stored XSS vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-39435"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Bknewsticker plugin \u003c= 1.0.5 - Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-39433"},"products":["Avatar"],"published":"2025-04-17","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":["Scott Taylor"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass access controls to read or modify data via insecure direct object references in the Avatar plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-39434/"}
