Deeper analysis

CVE-2025-23805 is a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability, classified under CWE-352, in the SEOReseller Partner (sr-partner) WordPress plugin developed by itamarg. This issue affects all versions of the plugin from unknown initial release through 1.3.15. Published on 2025-01-16, it carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L).
