Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-2245 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Vladimir Anokhin Shortcodes Ultimate. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-2245/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-2245/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-2245","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-2245/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-2245","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6jjc-rhxj-wqfc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can read arbitrary files on the server due to a directory traversal flaw in the Shortcodes Ultimate plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"jpcert","cpe":[{"product":"shortcodes_ultimate","vendor":"getshortcodes"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Directory traversal vulnerability in Shortcodes Ultimate prior to version 4.10.0 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via unspecified vectors.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Path traversal in Shortcodes Ultimate","id":"CVE-2017-2245","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Installer of Lhaz","id":"CVE-2017-2246"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in MFC-J960DWN","id":"CVE-2017-2244"},"products":["Shortcodes Ultimate"],"published":"2017-07-07","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-18580","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-22"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"WordPress Shortcodes Ultimate Plugin \u003c= 5.12.6 is vulnerable to Server Side Request Forgery (SSRF)","id":"CVE-2023-23800","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-13"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Shortcodes Ultimate Plugin \u003c= 5.12.6 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-25040","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-30"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Shortcodes Ultimate \u003c 5.12.8 - Subscriber+ Arbitrary Post Access","id":"CVE-2023-0890","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-20"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Shortcodes Ultimate \u003c 5.12.8 - Subscriber+ User Meta Disclosure","id":"CVE-2023-0911","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-20"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Shortcodes Ultimate \u003c= 7.4.0 - Authenticted (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'data-url' Attribute","id":"CVE-2025-5567","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-04"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in WP Shortcodes Plugin — Shortcodes Ultimate","id":"CVE-2024-4821","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-05"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["Vladimir Anokhin"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can read arbitrary files on the server due to a directory traversal flaw in the Shortcodes Ultimate plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-2245/"}
