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-2025-9501 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown W3 Total Cache. 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-2025-9501/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-9501/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-9501","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-9501/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-9501","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wx46-pc78-pqhq"],"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":"Unauthenticated attackers can execute arbitrary PHP commands via malicious comments in the W3 Total Cache WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"The W3 Total Cache WordPress plugin before 2.8.13 is vulnerable to command injection via the _parse_dynamic_mfunc function, allowing unauthenticated users to execute PHP commands by submitting a comment with a malicious payload to a post.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2026-01-14","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":0,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2026-01-14T21:55:13Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/InnerFireZ/CVE-2025_9501-POC","stars":0,"title":"CVE-2025-9501"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"W3 Total Cache \u003c 2.8.13 - Unauthenticated Command Injection","id":"CVE-2025-9501","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"command_injection","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Campcodes Online Loan Management System ajax.php sql injection","id":"CVE-2025-9502"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"TablePress \u003c= 3.2 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via shortcode_debug Parameter","id":"CVE-2025-9500"},"products":["W3 Total Cache"],"published":"2025-11-17","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-11-17","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can execute arbitrary PHP commands via malicious comments in the W3 Total Cache WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-9501/"}
