An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-14388 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: kiboit PhastPress. 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-2025-14388/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-14388/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-14388","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-14388/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-14388","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pgxv-mqxq-9799"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can read arbitrary files, including wp-config.php, from the webroot via null byte injection in PhastPress.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-158","name":"Improper Neutralization of Null Byte or NUL Character"}],"description":"The PhastPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Read via null byte injection in all versions up to, and including, 3.7. This is due to a discrepancy between the extension validation in `getExtensionForURL()` which operates on URL-decoded paths, and `appendNormalized()` which strips everything after a null byte before constructing the filesystem path. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files from the webroot, including wp-config.php, by appending a double URL-encoded null byte (%2500) followed by an allowed extension (.txt) to the file path.","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":"PhastPress \u003c= 3.7 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Read via Null Byte Injection","id":"CVE-2025-14388","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"WPBlogSyn \u003c= 1.0 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to Arbitrary Remote Sync Configuration Update","id":"CVE-2025-14389"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in LearnPress – WordPress LMS Plugin for Create and Sell Online Courses","id":"CVE-2025-14387"},"products":["PhastPress"],"published":"2025-12-23","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-08","vendors":["kiboit"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can read arbitrary files, including wp-config.php, from the webroot via null byte injection in PhastPress.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-14388/"}
