AI Analysis

Impact

The Veeqo for WooCommerce plugin up to version 2.2.8 has a flaw that allows any user with Subscriber-level permissions or higher to invoke its bridge‑installation routine. The plugin does not validate the URL it receives or restrict who can trigger the download and extraction stage, letting an attacker supply a custom archive that contains arbitrary PHP files. When extracted to the WordPress root, those files can be executed, giving the attacker the ability to run code with the web‑server’s privileges.

Affected Systems

Veeqo for WooCommerce WordPress plugin versions 2.2.8 and earlier. The vulnerability affects WordPress sites that have installed the plugin and have users with Subscriber-level access.

Risk and Exploitability

The exploit can be performed via a normal web request, so anyone who can authenticate as a Subscriber or higher can trigger it. The CVSS score of 4.3 indicates moderate severity, and the EPSS score of < 1% shows a very low exploitation probability. The vulnerability is not listed in KEV, but the lack of input validation and the ability to write PHP files to the WordPress root imply a significant impact if exploited. The flaw allows remote code execution on the web server, granting attackers the ability to run arbitrary PHP code.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Veeqo for WooCommerce plugin to a version newer than 2.2.8, which fixes the uncontrolled file upload and URL validation issues.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, disable the start_veeqo_connection_process functionality or restrict it so that only administrators can trigger it.
  • Remove the plugin entirely if it is not required, or keep it deactivated until a patched release is applied.
  • As a temporary measure, adjust the file system permissions on the WordPress root to deny write access for the web server user and monitor for any unexpected PHP files being uploaded.
