Summary

CVE-2025-44022 is a critical-severity Code Injection (CWE-94) vulnerability in Vvveb Vvveb. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked in the top 10.6% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

Deeper analysis

CVE-2025-44022 is a remote code execution vulnerability in Vvveb CMS version 1.0.6 that stems from improper handling in the plugin mechanism, classified under CWE-94. The flaw carries a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8, reflecting network-accessible attack vectors that require no authentication or user interaction.

An unauthenticated remote attacker can supply a malicious plugin to the affected CMS instance and achieve arbitrary code execution, resulting in full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability on the target system.

Public references point to a fix merged in commit dd74abcae88f658779f61338b9f4c123884eef0d of the upstream Vvveb repository, along with an associated GitHub issue that documents the problem. The EPSS score has remained flat at 0.0454 with no material increase since disclosure.
