POST SMTP – The #1 WordPress SMTP Plugin with Advanced Email Logging and Delivery Failure Notifications, CVE-2025-12887

CVE, Research URL

CVE-2025-12887

Published on
Dec 03, 2025
Research Description
The Post SMTP plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.1. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to update OAuth tokens on the 'handle_gmail_oauth_redirect' function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber level access and above, to inject invalid or attacker-controlled OAuth credentials. CVE-2025-67563 appears to be a duplicate of this issue.
Affected versions
max 3.6.2.
Status
vulnerable
