Last modified
CVE-2025-12705 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.2/10 on the CVSS scale. The Social Reviews & Recommendations plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via several parameters in the 'trim_text' function in all versions up to, and including, 2.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. EPSS estimates a 0.32% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
