Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
CVE-2026-25430 affects the WordPress plugin “Integration for Mailchimp and Contact Form 7, WPForms, Elementor, Ninja Forms” by CRM Perks. A logged-in user may access data they should not be authorized to view. The main business concern is confidentiality, not site takeover or service outage based on the provided scoring.
Executive priority
Treat as a near-term confidentiality risk for affected WordPress sites. Prioritize sites handling customer leads, marketing contacts, or form submissions. Urgency is moderate unless sensitive data exposure is confirmed or broader exploitation evidence appears.
Technical view
The issue is a missing authorization flaw, mapped to CWE-862, in package cf7-mailchimp through version 1.2.2. CVSS 3.1 is 6.5: network-accessible, low complexity, low privileges required, no user interaction, high confidentiality impact, no integrity or availability impact.
Likely exposure
Exposure is likely limited to WordPress sites running the CRM Perks cf7-mailchimp plugin at version 1.2.2 or earlier. The attacker must have some authenticated privilege level according to the CVSS vector.
Exploitation context
The source bundle does not show CISA KEV listing or cited evidence of active exploitation. Public details indicate broken access control, but do not provide exploit maturity, affected roles, or exact reachable endpoints.
Researcher notes
Evidence is limited to CVE metadata and Patchstack reference. The CVSS vector implies authenticated exploitation with confidentiality impact only. No authoritative fixed version, workaround, endpoint detail, or active exploitation evidence is included in the provided sources.
Mitigation direction
- Inventory WordPress sites for the cf7-mailchimp plugin and version.
- If installed at 1.2.2 or earlier, review vendor and Patchstack guidance.
- Restrict WordPress accounts to only necessary users and roles.
- Consider disabling the plugin where business impact is acceptable until guidance is confirmed.
- Monitor WordPress access logs for unusual authenticated data access.
Validation and detection
- Confirm whether the plugin is installed on each WordPress instance.
- Record installed plugin version and compare against affected range through 1.2.2.
- Review user roles with access to plugin-related admin or integration features.
- Check vendor, CVE, and Patchstack pages for fixed-version information.
- Document whether compensating access controls limit authenticated users.

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