CVE-2025-52831 describes a SQL Injection vulnerability discovered in the Video List Manager plugin for WordPress. This flaw allows attackers to inject arbitrary SQL code into database queries, potentially granting them unauthorized access to sensitive data. The vulnerability impacts versions from 0.0.0 up to and including 1.7, and a patch is available in version 1.7.1.
Successful exploitation of this SQL Injection vulnerability could allow an attacker to bypass authentication, read, modify, or delete data within the WordPress database. This includes user credentials, sensitive configuration information, and potentially even the entire website content. Depending on the database structure and permissions, an attacker might also be able to execute arbitrary commands on the server, leading to complete system compromise. The impact is particularly severe given the potential for widespread data exfiltration and disruption of WordPress-powered websites.
CVE-2025-52831 was publicly disclosed on 2025-07-04. The vulnerability's severity is high due to the ease of exploitation and potential impact. While no public proof-of-concept (PoC) code has been released at the time of writing, the SQL Injection nature of the vulnerability makes it likely that PoCs will emerge. It is not currently listed on the CISA KEV catalog.
WordPress websites utilizing the Video List Manager plugin, particularly those running older versions (0.0.0 - 1.7), are at significant risk. Shared hosting environments where multiple websites share the same database are especially vulnerable, as a compromise of one site could potentially impact others.

The primary mitigation for CVE-2025-52831 is to immediately upgrade the Video List Manager plugin to version 1.7.1 or later. If upgrading is not immediately feasible due to compatibility issues or breaking changes, consider implementing a Web Application Firewall (WAF) rule to filter potentially malicious SQL injection attempts. Specifically, look for patterns involving single quotes, double quotes, semicolons, and SQL keywords in user-supplied input. Additionally, review and restrict database user permissions to limit the potential damage from a successful attack. After upgrading, confirm the vulnerability is resolved by attempting a SQL injection payload through a plugin feature that previously exhibited the vulnerability.
