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-2025-46520 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: alphasis Related Posts via Taxonomies. 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-2025-46520/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-46520/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-46520","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-46520/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-46520","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fx63-j76q-5c76"],"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":"Attackers can exploit CSRF to inject stored XSS payloads, potentially leading to code execution or account takeover in WordPress sites using this plugin.","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-352","name":"Cross-Site Request Forgery"}],"description":"Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in alphasis Related Posts via Taxonomies related-posts-via-taxonomies allows Stored XSS.This issue affects Related Posts via Taxonomies: from n/a through \u003c= 1.0.1.","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 Related Posts via Taxonomies plugin \u003c= 1.0.1 - Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) to Stored XSS vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-46520","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 WS Force Login Page plugin \u003c= 3.0.3 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-46521"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Media Library Downloader plugin \u003c= 1.3.1 - Broken Access Control Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-46519"},"products":["Related Posts via Taxonomies"],"published":"2025-04-24","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":["alphasis"]},"summary":"Attackers can exploit CSRF to inject stored XSS payloads, potentially leading to code execution or account takeover in WordPress sites using this plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-46520/"}
