Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-15020 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: gothamdev Gotham Block Extra Light. 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-2025-15020/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-15020/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-15020","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-15020/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-15020","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8c6w-f98w-x44w"],"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":"Authenticated contributors can read arbitrary server files via the ghostban shortcode in the Gotham Block Extra Light WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"The Gotham Block Extra Light plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Read in all versions up to, and including, 1.5.0 via the  'ghostban' shortcode.
