Vulnerabilities
- High 7.1
CVE-2025-25153unauthenticated · needs a click≤ 1.1
WordPress Simple Auto Tag plugin <= 1.1 - CSRF to Stored XSS vulnerability
The access label is read from the record's own text (e.g. “subscriber+”: subscriber and above). When the text names no role, CVSS decides between “login required” and “high privilege”; no role name is invented. “Needs a click”: the attack depends on a logged-in user following a link (CSRF, reflected XSS).
