AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability arises from improper control of filenames used in PHP include and require statements within the Gutenify plugin. An attacker can supply crafted input that causes the plugin to include local files. This local file inclusion can enable the attacker to read arbitrary files on the server, and if PHP files can be injected and executed, it may lead to remote code execution. The weakness is classified as CWE-98.

Affected Systems

The affected product is the CodeYatri Gutenify WordPress plugin. Versions up to and including 1.5.4 are vulnerable. No specific sub-versions within that range are listed, so all earlier releases are considered affected until the fix is applied.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.5 indicates a high impact severity. An EPSS score of less than 1% shows that the likelihood of exploitation is currently low, and the vulnerability is not present in the CISA KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is through a manipulated request to the plugin that triggers the include logic; however, the precise path and parameters are not disclosed in the CVE data, so this inference is drawn from the nature of the flaw and typical LFI exploitation scenarios.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Gutenify plugin to version 1.5.6 or newer, which removes the local file inclusion flaw.
  • If an immediate update is not possible, disable or delete the Gutenify plugin to eliminate the vulnerable code path.
  • At least temporarily, configure the web server to block PHP execution in the plugin directory, such as by setting directory permissions or using .htaccess rules, to reduce the risk of remote code execution if local files are included.
  • Additionally, ensure that WordPress and all other plugins remain up to date and monitor security advisories for any related vulnerabilities.
