An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-26909 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: John Darrel Hide My WP Ghost. 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-2025-26909/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-26909/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-26909","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-26909/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-26909","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fhrv-4645-phmg"],"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":"An attacker can exploit a local file inclusion vulnerability in the Hide My WP Ghost plugin to achieve remote code execution on the WordPress site.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"hide_my_wp_ghost","vendor":"wpplugins"}],"cvss":{"score":9.6,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-98","name":"Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program"}],"description":"Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program ('PHP Remote File Inclusion') vulnerability in John Darrel Hide My WP Ghost hide-my-wp allows PHP Local File Inclusion.This issue affects Hide My WP Ghost: from n/a through \u003c= 5.4.01.","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":"WordPress Hide My WP Ghost plugin \u003c= 5.4.01 - Local File Inclusion to RCE vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-26909","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress WPBookit plugin \u003c= 1.0.1 - Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-26910"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Kargo Entegratör plugin \u003c= 1.1.14 - SQL Injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-26908"},"products":["Hide My WP Ghost"],"published":"2025-03-27","related":[{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Hide My WP Ghost \u003c 5.2.02 - Hidden Login Page Disclosure","id":"CVE-2024-6420","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-23"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"WP Ghost \u003c= 5.4.01 - Unauthenticated Limited File Read","id":"CVE-2025-2056","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-03-14"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Hide My WP Ghost – Security Plugin \u003c= 5.0.18 - IP Address Spoofing to Protection Mechanism Bypass","id":"CVE-2022-4537","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-09"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Hide My WP Ghost – Security \u0026 Firewall \u003c= 5.3.01 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via URL","id":"CVE-2024-10825","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-15"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"Hide My WP Ghost – Security \u0026 Firewall \u003c= 5.3.02 - Unauthenticated Login Page Disclosure","id":"CVE-2024-13794","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-12"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"WordPress Hide My WP Ghost – Security Plugin plugin \u003c= 5.0.25 - Captcha Bypass vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-34001","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-04"}],"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":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["John Darrel"]},"summary":"An attacker can exploit a local file inclusion vulnerability in the Hide My WP Ghost plugin to achieve remote code execution on the WordPress site.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-26909/"}
