CVE-2025-57948Network attack vector

Authenticated script execution in victim browser

Published Sep 22, 2025 · Updated Sep 22, 2025

DOM-based XSS in e-Plugins Directory Pro 2.5.5 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute scripts in a victim's browser. Patchstack has not disclosed the affected script, input source, DOM sink, or missing neutralization operation, so the concrete code path is not public. Contributor or Developer access and a privileged user's interaction are required; successful exploitation runs attacker-controlled script in that user's browser context.
