Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-8899 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: videowhisper Paid Videochat Turnkey Site – HTML5 PPV Live Webcams. 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-2025-8899/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-8899/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-8899","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-8899/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-8899","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mv8h-rrqx-q2w7"],"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":"Authenticated attackers with Author access can escalate privileges to Administrator by manipulating registration form roles in the Paid Videochat WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-269","name":"Improper Privilege Management"}],"description":"The Paid Videochat Turnkey Site – HTML5 PPV Live Webcams plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 7.3.20. This is due to videowhisper_register_form() function not restricting user roles that can be set during registration. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to create posts/pages with the registration form and administrator set as the role and subsequently use that form to register an administrator account. This can also be exploited by contributors, but is far less likely to be successful because an administrator would need to approve the form with the administrator role for the attack to be successful.","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":"Paid Videochat Turnkey Site – HTML5 PPV Live Webcams \u003c= 7.3.20 - Authenticated (Author+) Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2025-8899","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Doccure Core \u003c 1.5.4 - Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2025-8900"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Missing authorization in E-cab Taxi Booking Manager for Woocommerce","id":"CVE-2025-8898"},"products":["Paid Videochat Turnkey Site – HTML5 PPV Live Webcams"],"published":"2026-03-07","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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-08","vendors":["videowhisper"]},"summary":"Authenticated attackers with Author access can escalate privileges to Administrator by manipulating registration form roles in the Paid Videochat WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-8899/"}
