CVE-2025-4523: idonate vulnerability

What is known

The IDonate – Blood Donation, Request And Donor Management System plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on the admin_donor_profile_view() function in versions 2.0.0 to 2.1.9. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to expose an administrator’s username, email address, and all donor fields.

Business impact

Successful exploitation of CVE-2025-4523, a medium vulnerability (CVSS 6.5) affecting idonate, may affect the confidentiality, integrity or availability of the vulnerable environment. The exact impact depends on the installed version, exposed interfaces and deployment configuration.

Recommended administrator action

Confirm whether idonate is present and compare installed versions with the vendor advisory and NVD record. Apply the vendor patch or documented mitigation; until remediation is complete, reduce exposure of affected interfaces, review relevant logs and monitor for indicators of exploitation. DataHouse can support version verification, managed patching, network exposure reduction, log review and backup validation for dedicated, cloud and colocated environments.
