CVE-2025-62083 identifies a vulnerability in the WP Messiah BoomDevs WordPress Coming Soon Plugin versions up to 1.0.4, categorized under CWE-497, which involves the exposure of sensitive system information to unauthorized entities. This vulnerability allows attackers with network access and low privileges to retrieve embedded sensitive data from the plugin without requiring user interaction. The flaw arises due to improper handling or exposure of sensitive information within the plugin's code or configuration, potentially including system paths, configuration details, or other internal data that should remain confidential. Although the vulnerability does not affect integrity or availability, the leakage of sensitive information can facilitate further attacks such as targeted exploitation, privilege escalation, or social engineering. The CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.3 reflects a medium severity level, with an attack vector over the network, low attack complexity, and no user interaction needed. No known public exploits have been reported, and no patches are currently linked, indicating that vendors or maintainers may not have released a fix yet. The vulnerability affects all versions up to 1.0.4, and the plugin is typically used to display 'Coming Soon' pages on WordPress sites, often during site maintenance or development phases. This exposure could be particularly risky if sensitive environment details or credentials are embedded in the plugin's data. The vulnerability was reserved in October 2025 and published at the end of December 2025, suggesting it is a recent discovery.

For European organizations, this vulnerability poses a risk primarily to confidentiality, as unauthorized actors could retrieve sensitive system information that may aid in further attacks or reconnaissance. Organizations using the affected plugin on WordPress sites—especially those hosting customer data or critical business information—could face increased risk of targeted attacks if attackers leverage the leaked information. While the vulnerability does not directly impact system integrity or availability, the exposure of sensitive data can undermine trust and compliance with data protection regulations such as GDPR. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and digital agencies that frequently use WordPress plugins for rapid deployment are particularly at risk. The lack of known exploits reduces immediate threat but does not eliminate the risk of future exploitation. Additionally, the absence of a patch means organizations must rely on mitigation strategies until an official fix is released. The impact is heightened in sectors with stringent data privacy requirements or where WordPress sites serve as customer-facing portals.

1. Immediately audit all WordPress installations to identify the presence of the WP Messiah BoomDevs Coming Soon Plugin, particularly versions up to 1.0.4. 2. Restrict access to the plugin's functionality and related URLs using web application firewalls (WAFs) or server-level access controls to limit exposure to unauthorized users. 3. Remove or disable the plugin if it is not essential, especially on production environments. 4. Monitor web server and application logs for unusual access patterns or attempts to retrieve sensitive plugin data. 5. Implement strict least-privilege policies for WordPress user roles to minimize the risk of low-privilege accounts being exploited. 6. Regularly check for vendor updates or patches addressing this vulnerability and apply them promptly once available. 7. Consider deploying content security policies and security headers to reduce the risk of information leakage through other vectors. 8. Educate site administrators about the risks of embedding sensitive information in plugins or configuration files. 9. Use security plugins that can detect and alert on suspicious plugin behavior or known vulnerabilities. 10. Conduct penetration testing focused on information disclosure vulnerabilities to proactively identify similar issues.
