This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the wp_mcm_handle_action_settings() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to alter plugin settings, such as the taxonomy used for media, the base slug for media categories, and the default media category via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","score":6.5},"cwes":["CWE-352"],"references":["https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-media-category-management/tags/2.3.3/include/admin/class-WP_MCM_Render_Settings.php","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-media-category-management/trunk/include/admin/class-WP_MCM_Settings.php","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-media-category-management/trunk/include/class-WP_MCM_Options.php","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3242626/wp-media-category-management/trunk/include/admin/class-WP_MCM_Settings.php","https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-media-category-management/#developers"],"products":["de-baat:wp_media_category_management"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:59:18.731010617+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2025-0865","score":0.00279,"percentile":0.20377,"date":"2026-11-01"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
