Security readout for executives and security teams
This CVE affects the Apptha/Contus WordPress Video Gallery plugin 2.5. The reported flaw lets attackers manipulate database queries through plugin parameters. One path is described as remote attacker-accessible, while other paths require WordPress authentication. A vulnerable public WordPress site could face database disclosure or content tampering risk. Exposure is likely limited to WordPress sites that installed Apptha/Contus Video Gallery plugin version 2.5 or affected builds distributed before 2014-07-23. The provided CVE data does not identify broader products, CPEs, or exact fixed versions. Treat this as high priority if the plugin is present on an internet-facing WordPress site. The business risk is database compromise through a legacy plugin. If the plugin is absent, no action beyond documentation is needed. Mitigation focus: Inventory WordPress sites for the contus-video-gallery plugin.; Check vendor or WordPress plugin changelog for a fixed release.; Upgrade the plugin if a supported fixed version exists..
