Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
This is a broken access control issue in the WordPress Restaurant Menu by MotoPress plugin. A logged-in Subscriber-level user may be able to perform an unauthorized action that should require higher privileges. The known impact is limited integrity change, not data theft or service outage.
Executive priority
Prioritize for WordPress properties that allow customer or public account registration. The severity is moderate because exploitation requires a logged-in low-privileged account and the known impact is limited to integrity. Remediate during the next WordPress maintenance cycle, faster for public-registration sites.
Technical view
CVE-2025-63078 affects Restaurant Menu by MotoPress plugin versions up to 2.4.11. It is classified as CWE-862, Missing Authorization. CVSS 3.1 is 4.3: network-accessible, low complexity, requires low privileges, no user interaction, with low integrity impact only.
Likely exposure
Exposure is most relevant for WordPress sites running mp-restaurant-menu <= 2.4.11 where Subscriber accounts exist or public registration is enabled. Sites without untrusted low-privileged users have lower practical exposure, based on the provided CVSS privileges requirement.
Exploitation context
The source bundle does not show CISA KEV listing or cited evidence of active exploitation. Public details are limited and do not identify the affected function, endpoint, or exact unauthorized action. Treat this as an authenticated integrity-risk issue, not a confirmed mass-exploitation event.
Researcher notes
Available sources confirm category, affected plugin, version range, CVSS, and CWE only. They do not provide vulnerable code paths, exploit status, or a named fixed release in the supplied bundle. Avoid asserting broader impact until vendor or database details are updated.
Mitigation direction
Inventory WordPress sites for the mp-restaurant-menu plugin.
Check installed plugin versions and flag versions <= 2.4.11.
Review MotoPress and Patchstack guidance for a fixed version or official mitigation.
Update the plugin if an official fixed release is available.
Disable the plugin if business use is low and no fix is available.
Limit public user registration and remove unnecessary Subscriber accounts.
Validation and detection
Confirm whether mp-restaurant-menu is installed on each WordPress site.
Record plugin version and compare against <= 2.4.11 affected range.
Check whether public registration or untrusted Subscriber accounts are enabled.
Review WordPress logs for unexpected Subscriber-initiated menu or plugin changes.
Monitor vendor and Patchstack pages for clarified fixed-version information.

CWE-862: Authorization and privilege behavior lookup
Authorization weaknesses can support privilege escalation and valid-account review, depending on exploit path. Open the exact CWE lookup page first, then review the ATT&CK searches from that MITRE weakness context. This is a Glexia lookup hint, not an official ATT&CK mapping.
These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present, the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.

Missing Authorization
Missing Authorization represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
