CVE-2026-0725 identifies a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Integrate Dynamics 365 CRM plugin for WordPress, developed by cyberlord92. This vulnerability exists in all versions up to and including 1.1.1 due to insufficient sanitization and output escaping of user-supplied input in the plugin’s administrative settings. Specifically, authenticated users with Administrator-level privileges can inject arbitrary JavaScript code into the plugin’s pages. When other users, including administrators or CRM users, access these pages, the injected scripts execute in their browsers. This can lead to session hijacking, theft of sensitive information, or unauthorized actions performed with the victim’s privileges. The vulnerability requires high privileges (administrator access) and does not require user interaction to trigger once the malicious script is stored. The CVSS 3.1 score is 4.4 (medium), reflecting network attack vector, high attack complexity, required privileges, no user interaction, and limited confidentiality and integrity impact without availability impact. No public exploits have been reported yet, but the risk remains due to the plugin’s integration with Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM, which is widely used in enterprise environments. The vulnerability’s scope is significant because it affects the confidentiality and integrity of CRM data and potentially the broader WordPress environment hosting the plugin. The lack of patches at the time of reporting increases the urgency for mitigation.

For European organizations, this vulnerability poses a risk to the confidentiality and integrity of CRM data managed through Dynamics 365 integrated with WordPress. Attackers with administrator access could inject malicious scripts that compromise user sessions or manipulate CRM data, potentially leading to data breaches or unauthorized data modification. Given the widespread use of WordPress and Dynamics 365 CRM in Europe, especially in sectors like finance, manufacturing, and public administration, exploitation could disrupt business operations and damage trust. The vulnerability could also facilitate lateral movement within networks if attackers leverage compromised admin sessions. Although exploitation requires administrator privileges, insider threats or compromised admin accounts increase risk. The medium CVSS score suggests moderate impact, but the strategic importance of CRM data elevates the potential business impact. Countries with high Dynamics 365 adoption and active WordPress ecosystems are particularly vulnerable, making this a relevant concern for European enterprises relying on these technologies.

European organizations should immediately audit and restrict administrator access to the Integrate Dynamics 365 CRM plugin within WordPress, ensuring only trusted personnel have such privileges. Implement strict input validation and output encoding on all admin-configurable fields to prevent script injection. Monitor administrative activity logs for unusual changes or suspicious behavior indicative of attempted exploitation. Where possible, isolate the WordPress instance hosting the plugin from critical internal networks to limit lateral movement. Employ Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block XSS payloads targeting the plugin’s admin pages. Regularly update the plugin once a patch is released by the vendor. Until a patch is available, consider disabling the plugin or limiting its use to reduce exposure. Conduct user awareness training for administrators on the risks of XSS and safe plugin management practices. Finally, perform regular security assessments and penetration tests focusing on WordPress plugins integrated with enterprise systems like Dynamics 365.
