The vulnerability CVE-2025-22677 in UIUX Lab Uix Shortcodes (up to version 2.0.3) arises from missing authorization controls in the plugin's access management. This weakness permits unauthorized users to bypass intended access restrictions, potentially exposing or modifying data within the plugin's scope. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 4.8 (medium), reflecting network attack vector, high complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, and limited confidentiality and integrity impact. No vendor patch or advisory is currently provided, and no exploits have been observed in the wild.

An attacker can exploit the missing authorization to gain unauthorized access or perform unauthorized actions within the Uix Shortcodes plugin, resulting in limited confidentiality and integrity impacts. There is no impact on availability. The attack requires network access and has high complexity, reducing the likelihood of exploitation. No known active exploitation has been reported.

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance.
