CVE-2025-8690
The Simple Responsive Slider plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 2.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.27%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
