Deeper analysis

CVE-2025-25149 is a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the Danillo Nunes Login-box WordPress plugin that allows Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). This issue affects all versions of the Login-box plugin from unknown initial versions through 2.0.4 inclusive.

A remote attacker with no required privileges can exploit this vulnerability by tricking a user into submitting a malicious request, such as via a crafted webpage, leading to the storage of an XSS payload. The CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L) indicates network accessibility, low attack complexity, user interaction requirement, and changed scope, with low impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Patchstack's advisory documents this CSRF to Stored XSS vulnerability specifically in the WordPress Login-box plugin up to version 2.0.4, providing details on the issue for affected installations.
