CVE-2025-62083: 
WordPress vulnerability analysis and mitigation

CVE-2025-62083 is a Sensitive Data Exposure vulnerability (CWE-497) in the WP Messiah BoomDevs WordPress Coming Soon plugin, affecting versions up to and including 1.0.5. The flaw allows authenticated (or potentially unauthenticated, per Patchstack) low-privileged users to retrieve embedded sensitive system information that should not be accessible to regular users. It was reported by researcher Jitlada on October 8, 2025, and publicly disclosed by Patchstack on December 31, 2025. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 4.3 (Medium) (Patchstack, Red Hat CVE).

The vulnerability is classified as CWE-497 (Exposure of Sensitive System Information to an Unauthorized Control Sphere), mapped to CAPEC-170 (Web Application Fingerprinting). The plugin embeds sensitive data within its output or responses in a manner accessible to low-privileged or unauthenticated users, enabling retrieval of information that could facilitate further attacks. The attack vector is network-based, requires low complexity, and no user interaction, making it straightforward to exploit once an attacker has minimal access. No detailed technical write-up or proof-of-concept code has been publicly released beyond the Patchstack advisory (Patchstack).

Successful exploitation allows a malicious actor to view sensitive information not normally available to regular users, which could be leveraged to identify further weaknesses or facilitate secondary attacks against the WordPress installation. The impact is limited to confidentiality (low), with no direct integrity or availability consequences. While the individual impact is modest, Patchstack notes that vulnerabilities of this type are commonly used in mass-exploit campaigns targeting large numbers of WordPress sites simultaneously (Patchstack).

No public proof-of-concept exploit code or evidence of active in-the-wild exploitation has been reported for CVE-2025-62083. The EPSS score is approximately 0.027% (0.000270), indicating a very low probability of exploitation in the near term. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. Patchstack rates this as low priority and considers it unlikely to be exploited in a targeted manner, though mass-scanning campaigns remain a theoretical risk (Patchstack, Red Hat CVE).

As of the Patchstack advisory, no official patch from the plugin developer (WP Messiah) has been confirmed; the vulnerable versions are listed as 1.0.5 and below, and Patchstack indicates no patched version is currently available through the official channel. WordPress site administrators should monitor the WordPress plugin repository for an updated version and apply it immediately upon release. In the interim, disabling or removing the BoomDevs WordPress Coming Soon plugin is the recommended workaround. Patchstack customers received early warning and virtual patching protections as of December 31, 2025 (Patchstack).
