An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-8009 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: cleverplugins Security Ninja – WordPress Security Plugin \u0026 Firewall. 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-2025-8009/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-8009/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-8009","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-8009/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-8009","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8wmc-rr78-8pf9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress security plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated administrators can read arbitrary files on the server via a path traversal vulnerability in the Security Ninja WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":4.9,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-36","name":"Absolute Path Traversal"}],"description":"The Security Ninja – WordPress Security Plugin \u0026 Firewall plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Read in all versions up to, and including, 5.242 via the 'get_file_source' function.
