Deeper analysis

CVE-2025-30806 is an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability, classified under CWE-89, in the Vimeotheque WordPress plugin (codeflavors-vimeo-video-post-lite) developed by Constantin Boiangiu. This issue affects the plugin from n/a through version 2.3.4.2. The vulnerability carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:L), indicating high severity due to its network accessibility and potential for significant impact.

The vulnerability can be exploited by low-privileged authenticated users (PR:L) over the network (AV:N) with low attack complexity (AC:L) and no user interaction required (UI:N). Exploitation changes the scope (S:C), enabling high confidentiality impact (C:H) such as unauthorized access to sensitive database information, alongside low availability impact (A:L) and no integrity impact (I:N).
