An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-25020 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown CAOS | Host Google Analytics Locally. 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-2021-25020/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25020/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-25020","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25020/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-25020","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hgpj-mg5q-324q"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"High-privilege users can delete arbitrary folders via path traversal during plugin uninstallation in the CAOS WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"complete_analytics_optimization_suite","vendor":"daan"}],"cvss":{"score":4.9,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"The CAOS | Host Google Analytics Locally WordPress plugin before 4.1.9 does not validate the cache directory setting, allowing high privilege users to use a path traversal vector and delete arbitrary folders when uninstalling the plugin","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":"CAOS \u003c 4.1.9 - Admin+ Arbitrary Folder Deletion via Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2021-25020","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"OMGF \u003c 4.5.12 - Admin+ Arbitrary Folder Deletion via Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2021-25021"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SEO Plugin by Squirrly SEO \u003c 11.1.12 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-25019"},"products":["CAOS | Host Google Analytics Locally"],"published":"2022-01-03","related":[{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"CAOS | Host Google Analytics Locally \u003c= 4.7.14 - Missing Authorization to Unauthenticated Plugin Settings Update","id":"CVE-2023-6637","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-01-11"}],"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":"2024-08-03","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"High-privilege users can delete arbitrary folders via path traversal during plugin uninstallation in the CAOS WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25020/"}
