At a glance

CVE-2025-10938 is a medium-severity Missing Authorization vulnerability in the UiPress lite WordPress plugin, affecting versions <= 3.5.09. It carries a CVSS score of 6.5 (reachable over the network; low attack complexity; high confidentiality impact). Exploitation requires an authenticated account at Subscriber level or above. The issue is fixed in version 3.5.10; sites on affected versions should update now. Disclosed November 2025, reported by abrahack.

Vulnerability Overview

The UiPress lite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 3.5.08. This is due to missing capability checks in the 'uip_process_block_query' AJAX function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to extract sensitive user data including password hashes, emails, and other user information that could be used for account takeover attacks.

Technical Analysis

The vector marks this flaw as remotely reachable over the network, with low attack complexity — no special timing or configuration is needed, and no interaction from a victim user. A successful exploit has high impact on confidentiality.

CWE-862: Missing Authorization

UiPress lite <= 3.5.09 carries this weakness at uip_process_block_query, and reaching it takes an account at Subscriber level or above. A missing authorization check means a function is reachable by anyone who can reach the endpoint, because the code never asks whether the caller is allowed to perform the action.

Any user who can reach the endpoint gets to run an action reserved for higher-privileged roles, from reading protected data to changing settings or content. For UiPress lite the fix is 3.5.10: builds <= 3.5.09 are affected, anything from 3.5.10 onward is not.

Remediation

Update to version 3.5.10, or a newer patched version

How does WordSec protect against this?

Because it turns on account access, WordSec's login security is the relevant layer: role-based two-factor, captcha and brute-force limits raise the cost of getting the account this needs. None of that substitutes for the fix: UiPress lite 3.5.10 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
