CVE-2025-1510 is a high-severity flaw (CVSS 7.3) affecting custom post type date archives. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.

The The Custom Post Type Date Archives plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.1. This is due to the software allowing users to execute an action that does not properly validate a value before running do_shortcode. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary shortcodes.
