Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
A WordPress plugin used for coming-soon or maintenance pages has a CSRF weakness through version 1.0.9. An attacker could trick a logged-in administrator into unintentionally changing plugin behavior. The cited data rates this as medium severity, with limited integrity and availability impact and no confidentiality impact.
Executive priority
Treat this as a moderate WordPress hygiene issue. It is not marked as actively exploited, but it can affect site integrity or availability if an administrator is tricked. Prioritize externally visible WordPress sites and any business-critical maintenance or launch pages.
Technical view
CVE-2025-24546 is CWE-352 in RSTheme Ultimate Coming Soon & Maintenance, package ultimate-coming-soon, affecting versions through 1.0.9. CVSS 3.1 is 5.4: network exploitable, low complexity, no attacker privileges, user interaction required, unchanged scope, low integrity and availability impact.
Likely exposure
Exposure is limited to WordPress sites with the RSTheme Ultimate Coming Soon & Maintenance plugin installed at version 1.0.9 or earlier. Sites without this plugin, or not using the affected package, are not indicated as exposed by the supplied sources.
Exploitation context
The source bundle does not show active exploitation, and the CVE is not marked in CISA KEV. Exploitation requires user interaction, likely involving a logged-in privileged WordPress user being induced to perform an unintended action. No exploit details are provided in the sources.
Researcher notes
Evidence confirms CSRF classification, affected plugin, affected range through 1.0.9, CVSS vector, and non-KEV status. The provided sources do not name a vulnerable endpoint, patch version, proof of concept, exploit activity, or precise configuration impact, so validation should stay inventory- and vendor-guidance-focused.
Mitigation direction
- Inventory WordPress sites for the ultimate-coming-soon plugin and record installed versions.
- Prioritize sites running version 1.0.9 or earlier for remediation review.
- Check RSTheme, WordPress.org, and Patchstack guidance for a patched version or vendor mitigation.
- Restrict WordPress administrator sessions to trusted devices and reduce unnecessary admin access.
- Monitor for unexpected maintenance-mode or plugin configuration changes.
Validation and detection
- Confirm whether Ultimate Coming Soon & Maintenance is installed on each WordPress site.
- Verify the installed plugin version is greater than 1.0.9, if a fixed release is available.
- Review vendor or Patchstack guidance for the specific vulnerable functionality and remediation status.
- Check WordPress admin activity for unexpected plugin-setting changes after suspicious admin browsing.
- Document sites where no vendor fix is confirmed and apply compensating access controls.

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
