Incorrect Privilege Assignment
CVE CVE-2025-54735
CVSS 8.8 (High)
Publicly Published August 19, 2025
Last Updated August 25, 2025
Researcher Martino Spagnuolo

Description

The CubeWP – All-in-One Dynamic Content Framework plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.24. This is due to the plugin not properly restricting user meta key updates through the cwp_save_user_fields() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to elevate their privileges to that of an administrator.
