AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-13812 describes a missing authorization vulnerability (CWE-862) in the GamiPress WordPress plugin used for gamification features. The flaw exists in the gamipress_ajax_get_posts and gamipress_ajax_get_users AJAX functions, which lack proper capability checks. This allows authenticated users with minimal privileges (Subscriber-level and above) to access sensitive information such as user email addresses and private post titles. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 7.6.1. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 4.3, reflecting a low complexity attack vector with limited confidentiality impact and no integrity or availability impact.
Potential Impact
An attacker with authenticated Subscriber-level access can enumerate users and obtain their email addresses, as well as retrieve titles of private posts. This leads to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information but does not affect data integrity or availability. There are no known exploits in the wild. The impact is limited to information disclosure within the WordPress environment where the plugin is installed.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict Subscriber-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or limiting the use of the affected AJAX functions if possible. Monitor for updates from the plugin vendor or WordPress security channels for an official patch or workaround.
