AI Analysis

Impact

The WP SMS plugin versions up to 7.2.1 contain a flaw that allows unauthorized disclosure of subscriber data, classified as a CWE-288 vulnerability. An attacker can obtain personal information stored for each subscriber, potentially compromising privacy and violating data protection requirements. The impact is a loss of confidentiality of subscriber records that could be used for more damaging attacks if combined with other exploits.

Affected Systems

Any WordPress site using the WP SMS plugin from VeronaLabs with a version of 7.2.1 or older. The vulnerability affects the plugin handling subscriber data in the WordPress administration environment.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.5 indicates a moderate severity, while the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a low likelihood of current exploitation. It is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. The attack vector is inferred to require access to the plugin’s backend or to exploit a publicly exposed endpoint that returns subscriber data. An authenticated administrator user or one with sufficient privileges to query the plugin endpoints may be able to trigger the disclosure.
