CVE-2025-3605 affects the Frontend Login and Registration Blocks plugin for WordPress in all versions up to and including 1.0.7. The vulnerability is caused by improper validation of a user's identity in the flr_blocks_user_settings_handle_ajax_callback() function before allowing updates to account details such as the email address. As a result, an unauthenticated attacker can modify the email address associated with an arbitrary user account, including administrator accounts. After changing the victim account's email address, the attacker can trigger a password reset flow and take control of the account.

This repository contains a Python proof-of-concept exploit (CVE-2025-3605.py) targeting the Frontend Login and Registration Blocks WordPress plugin (versions <= 1.0.7). The exploit leverages an unauthenticated privilege escalation vulnerability, allowing an attacker to change the email address of any user (typically the admin) by sending a crafted POST request to the /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php endpoint. After changing the email, the attacker can use the standard WordPress password reset process at /wp-login.php to gain full control of the account. The repository includes a README.md with detailed usage instructions and a requirements.txt listing the 'requests' library as a dependency. The exploit is straightforward, requiring only the target URL, user ID, and attacker-controlled email address. No authentication or prior access is needed, making this a critical and easily exploitable vulnerability.
This repository contains a Python proof-of-concept exploit for CVE-2025-3605, targeting the 'Frontend Login and Registration Blocks' WordPress plugin (versions <= 1.0.7). The exploit leverages an unauthenticated privilege escalation vulnerability in the plugin's AJAX handler, allowing an attacker to change the email address of any user (typically the admin) by sending a crafted POST request to '/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php'. After changing the email, the attacker can use the standard WordPress password reset process at '/wp-login.php' to take over the admin account. The repository includes the main exploit script (CVE-2025-3605.py), a README with detailed usage instructions and vulnerability explanation, a requirements.txt listing 'requests' as a dependency, and a license file. The exploit is operational and automates the attack, but does not include advanced payload customization or post-exploitation features, making it a proof-of-concept. No hardcoded IPs or domains are present; the target URL is supplied by the user at runtime.
