    CVE-2025-5486 (GCVE-0-2025-5486)

    Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-06-06 06:42 – Updated: 2025-06-06 16:08

    Title
    WP Email Debug 1.0 - 1.1.0 - Missing Authorization to Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation via Password Reset
    Summary
    The WP Email Debug plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation due to a missing capability check on the WPMDBUG_handle_settings() function in versions 1.0 to 1.1.0. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to enable debugging and send all emails to an attacker controlled address and then trigger a password reset for an administrator to gain access to an administrator account.
