Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The Kirki plugin (version ≤ 6.0.11) must be installed and active on the WordPress site. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N scores 5.3 (Medium). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker issues a series of HTTP POST requests to the target WordPress site's wp-admin/admin-ajax.php endpoint, specifying action=get_single_symbol and incrementing the post ID parameter from 1 upward.
