View on CVE.org
Published Oct 25, 2025 CVSS 3.1 · 6.4 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
The The7 — Website and eCommerce Builder for WordPress theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘ the7_fancy_title_css’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 12.9.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

The WordPress theme for Dream‑Theme contains a stored cross‑site scripting flaw in the ‘the7_fancy_title_css’ parameter. Unsanitized input allows an attacker who can log in as a Contributor or higher to inject arbitrary JavaScript that will execute whenever a victim views an affected page. This capability can enable defacement, credential theft, session hijacking, or other client‑side compromise actions. The vulnerability is a classic input validation weakness (CWE‑79).

Affected Systems

All releases of Dream‑Theme’s The7 theme through version 12.9.1, including all earlier builds, are susceptible.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.4 classifies the flaw as moderate severity. EPSS indicates an exploitation probability of less than 1 %. The exploit requires authenticated access with Contributor privileges and the ability to modify theme settings, so it may not be widely available to anonymous attackers. The vulnerability is not in CISA’s KEV catalog, suggesting that mass‐deployment of attack code has not been observed yet.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update The7 theme to version 12.9.2 or later, which removes the vulnerable parameter handling.
  • If an upgrade cannot be performed immediately, restrict Contributor accounts or remove Contributor privileges until the patch is applied.
  • Review existing content for injected scripts and sanitize or delete the ‘the7_fancy_title_css’ values in the database; consider applying a site‑wide Content‑Security‑Policy header to mitigate client‑side XSS.
