CVE-2025-2806 is a medium-severity flaw (CVSS 6.1) affecting tagdiv composer. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.

The tagDiv Composer plugin for WordPress, used by the Newspaper theme, is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘data’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 5.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
