Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-27272 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: vinagecko VG PostCarousel. 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-2025-27272/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-27272/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-27272","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-27272/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-27272","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qg2c-hj47-j83g"],"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":"An attacker can exploit a Local File Inclusion vulnerability in the VG PostCarousel plugin to read arbitrary files on the server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/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 vinagecko VG PostCarousel vg-postcarousel allows PHP Local File Inclusion.This issue affects VG PostCarousel: from n/a through \u003c= 1.1.","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 VG PostCarousel plugin \u003c= 1.1 - Local File Inclusion vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-27272","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 Affiliate Links Manager Plugin \u003c= 1.0 - Reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-27273"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress DB Tables Import/Export Plugin \u003c= 1.0.1 - Reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-27271"},"products":["VG PostCarousel"],"published":"2025-02-24","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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["vinagecko"]},"summary":"An attacker can exploit a Local File Inclusion vulnerability in the VG PostCarousel plugin to read arbitrary files on the server.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-27272/"}
