Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
ExactMetrics for WordPress has a broken access control issue through version 8.1.0. An authenticated user may be able to access functions or data they should not. The public data rates this medium severity, with limited confidentiality and integrity impact and no stated availability impact.
Executive priority
Prioritize routine remediation for affected WordPress sites. Escalate if the plugin is widely deployed, exposed to many authenticated users, or used on high-value marketing properties.
Technical view
CVE-2025-24750 is a CWE-862 missing authorization flaw in the ExactMetrics WordPress plugin package google-analytics-dashboard-for-wp. CVSS 3.1 is 5.4: network reachable, low complexity, low privileges required, no user interaction, unchanged scope, low confidentiality and integrity impact.
Likely exposure
Exposure is limited to WordPress sites running ExactMetrics google-analytics-dashboard-for-wp through version 8.1.0, especially where untrusted authenticated users have accounts.
Exploitation context
The bundle does not cite active exploitation, public exploit details, or CISA KEV listing. Treat exploitation status as unconfirmed, not actively exploited.
Researcher notes
The source bundle names broken access control but does not provide endpoint-level details, a fixed version, or proof of exploitation. The affected metadata appears sparse, so rely on the description and advisory scope: ExactMetrics through 8.1.0.
Mitigation direction
- Check vendor and Patchstack guidance for the fixed release or recommended workaround.
- Update ExactMetrics when a vendor-supported fixed version is available.
- Disable or remove the plugin if it is not business-critical.
- Limit WordPress accounts and roles to trusted users only.
- Monitor for unexpected plugin access by low-privileged authenticated users.
Validation and detection
- Inventory WordPress sites for ExactMetrics google-analytics-dashboard-for-wp installations.
- Confirm whether installed plugin versions are 8.1.0 or earlier.
- Review WordPress user roles for unnecessary authenticated access.
- Check site logs for unusual ExactMetrics-related activity from low-privileged accounts.
- Track the CVE and Patchstack advisory for remediation updates.
