The Terms descriptions plugin for WordPress (CVE-2025-6719) contains a Stored Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability in versions up to and including 3.4.8. The vulnerability was discovered and reported by Wordfence on July 18, 2025. This security issue affects WordPress installations, specifically multi-site installations and those where unfiltered_html has been disabled (NVD).

It has been assigned a CVSS v3.1 Base Score of 4.4 (MEDIUM) with the vector string CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N. The vulnerability is classified as CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation) (NVD, Wordfence).

When exploited, this vulnerability allows authenticated attackers with administrator-level permissions to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages. These malicious scripts will execute whenever a user accesses an affected page, potentially compromising the security of site visitors (NVD).

As of July 15, 2025, the plugin has been temporarily closed and is not available for download pending a full review (WordPress Plugin). Site administrators using affected versions should consider disabling the plugin until a patched version becomes available.
