The vulnerability was identified on February 28, 2025, by security researcher Abdi Pranata and was officially published on March 24, 2025, with the identifier CVE-2025-30558. The vulnerability received a CVSS v3.1 score of 7.1 (High) (Patchstack).

The vulnerability stems from missing or incorrect nonce validation on a function within the ANAC XML Render plugin. This security flaw is classified as CWE-352 (Cross-Site Request Forgery) and allows for potential stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability enables unauthenticated attackers to update settings and inject malicious web scripts through forged requests, provided they can deceive a site administrator into performing specific actions, such as clicking on a malicious link. This could lead to compromised website security and potential unauthorized actions executed under the administrator's privileges (WPScan).

The vulnerability is classified as having low attack complexity and requires user interaction for successful exploitation. No authentication is needed to exploit this vulnerability, though it requires social engineering to trick an administrator into triggering the malicious payload (Patchstack).
