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-2025-49859 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: etruel WP Views Counter. 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-2025-49859/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-49859/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-49859","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-49859/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-49859","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-938h-c7c3-r4v9"],"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":"low_privilege","summary":"Stored XSS in WP Views Counter allows attackers to inject malicious scripts, potentially leading to session hijacking or site defacement.","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 etruel WP Views Counter wpecounter allows Stored XSS.This issue affects WP Views Counter: from n/a through \u003c= 2.0.3.","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 WP Views Counter plugin \u003c= 2.0.3 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-49859","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 Majestic Support plugin \u003c= 1.1.0 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-49860"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Arconix Shortcodes plugin \u003c= 2.1.17 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-49858"},"products":["WP Views Counter"],"published":"2025-06-17","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":["etruel"]},"summary":"Stored XSS in WP Views Counter allows attackers to inject malicious scripts, potentially leading to session hijacking or site defacement.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-49859/"}
