CVE-2025-13486

The Advanced Custom Fields: Extended plugin for WordPress contains a vulnerability that allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on the server. This occurs when the plugin's prepare_form() function accepts user input, which is then passed through call_user_func_array(), allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious code. As a result, attackers can potentially inject backdoors or create new administrative user accounts, compromising the security of the affected WordPress site.
