GHSA-W2X2-HCW6-22P4

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-02-14 09:31 – Updated: 2026-02-14 09:31

Details

The Flexi Product Slider and Grid for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.5 via the flexipsg_carousel shortcode. This is due to the theme parameter being directly concatenated into a file path without proper sanitization or validation, allowing directory traversal. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to include and execute arbitrary PHP files on the server via the theme parameter granted they can create posts with shortcodes.

Severity ?

7.5 (High)


                  
                    CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
