- CVE-2025-13842, 19 Feb 2026
- The Breadcrumb NavXT plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass through user-controlled key in versions up to and including 7.5.0. This is due to the Gutenberg block renderer trusting the $_REQUEST['post_id'] parameter without verification in the includes/blocks/build/breadcrumb-trail/render.php file. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to enumerate and view breadcrumb trails for draft or private posts by manipulating the post_id parameter, revealing post titles and hierarchy that should remain hidden.

What to do if you run Breadcrumb NavXT
If you run Breadcrumb NavXT, open WordPress and check the installed version in Plugins. Compare it with the affected versions in the vulnerability record. If a fixed version is available, take a current backup and update to that version or the latest supported release.
If no fixed version exists, consider disabling and removing the plugin or replacing it with a maintained alternative. After dealing with the affected software, check administrator users, unexpected file changes, redirects, unfamiliar pages and security logs for signs that the site may already have been altered.
