An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-5907 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown File Manager. 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-2023-5907/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-5907/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-5907","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-5907/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-5907","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hmhp-m9p3-px6r"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Administrators can access and modify arbitrary system files by setting the file manager root outside the WordPress directory.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"file_manager","vendor":"bitapps"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-552","name":"Files or Directories Accessible to External Parties"}],"description":"The File Manager WordPress plugin before 6.3 does not restrict the file managers root directory, allowing an administrator to set a root outside of the WordPress root directory, giving access to system files and directories even in a multisite setup, where site administrators should not be allowed to modify the sites files.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"File Manager \u003c 6.3 - Admin+ Arbitrary OS File/Folder Access + Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2023-5907","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Heap Based Buffer Overflow in PTC KEPServerEx","id":"CVE-2023-5908"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Job Manager \u0026 Career \u003c 1.4.4 - Directory listing to Sensitive Data Exposure","id":"CVE-2023-5906"},"products":["File Manager"],"published":"2023-12-11","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"File upload in File Manager","id":"CVE-2024-7770","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-09-10"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Bit File Manager 6.0 - 6.5.5 - Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution via Race Condition","id":"CVE-2024-7627","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-09-05"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"WordPress File Manager Plugin \u003c= 5.2.7 is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection","id":"CVE-2022-47599","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-12-20"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-05-27","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Administrators can access and modify arbitrary system files by setting the file manager root outside the WordPress directory.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-5907/"}
