An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2020-25213 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2020-25213 is a critical vulnerability in n/a, published on 9 Sep 2020. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2020-25213 in the wild since at least 3 Nov 2021.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2020-25213/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-25213/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-25213","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-25213/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-25213","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-w774-7g7w-83fx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can upload and execute arbitrary PHP code via the wp-file-manager plugin, leading to full site compromise.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"file_upload"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"file_manager","vendor":"filemanagerpro"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AC:L/AV:N/A:H/C:H/I:H/PR:N/S:C/UI:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-434","name":"Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type"}],"description":"The File Manager (wp-file-manager) plugin before 6.9 for WordPress allows remote attackers to upload and execute arbitrary PHP code because it renames an unsafe example elFinder connector file to have the .php extension.
