Description
The Advanced Views – Display Posts, Custom Fields, and More plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Template Injection in all versions up to, and including, 3.7.19. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and lack of access control when processing custom Twig templates in the Model panel. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access or higher, to execute arbitrary PHP code and commands on the server.

AI Analysis

Impact

Advanced Views – Display Posts, Custom Fields, and More plugin for WordPress allows authenticated users with author level or higher to inject Server‑Side Template Injection via unsanitized Twig templates in the Model panel. This flaw permits arbitrary execution of PHP code and system commands, enabling attackers to compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the hosting environment.

Affected Systems

WordPress sites running the Advanced Views – Display Posts, Custom Fields, and More plugin (by wplakeorg) at version 3.7.19 or older are affected. The vulnerability exists in all releases up to and including 3.7.19, regardless of other plugins or themes installed.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.8 indicates severe impact, but the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests very low likelihood of exploitation in the very near term. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. An attacker would need authenticated author or higher privileges, making the attack vector an authenticated, application‑level exploitation that could lead to remote code execution on the server.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Advanced Views plugin to a version newer than 3.7.19, such as the latest release at the time of patching.
  • Revoke author‑level or higher capabilities from users who do not require them, ensuring only trusted roles have access.
  • If a newer version is not immediately available, disable custom Twig template support in the plugin settings or remove the Model panel feature to eliminate the template injection entry point.
