CVE-2025-3868

Summary

CVE-2025-3868 is a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting the Custom Admin-Bar Favorites plugin for WordPress. Versions up to and including 0.1 are vulnerable due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the 'menuObject' parameter. An attacker can exploit this issue by tricking a user into clicking a malicious link, resulting in the injection of arbitrary web scripts that execute in the user's browser. This vulnerability poses a significant security risk, as it allows unauthenticated attackers to gain control over a user's web session. It is essential that users update to the latest version of the plugin or disable it altogether to mitigate this risk.
