CVE-2025-12505

medium

Description

The weDocs plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.14. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action in the create_item_permissions_check function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify global plugin settings.
