I believe that the reason why Cinder became weak to the Silver Eyes when she became the Maiden is because she didn't become the Maiden naturally; instead she used a glove with held a Grimm inside to steal it, and that Grimm went inside her body to hold the Maiden powers there.

So it's not Cinder and the Maiden powers that are weak to the Silver Eyes, it's the Grimm that she used to steal the Maiden powers in the first place.

This is supported by Salem telling Cinder that her probelms are to do with the fact that she is 'fighting it' and that she must 'make it dread her'.

From the transcript:

Salem : Do you feel it? Don’t fight it, girl. It can sense your trepidation. You must make it dread  you.
