Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The Addonify – Quick View For WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Full Path Disclosure in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.16. This is due the plugin utilizing mobiledetect without preventing direct access to the files. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to retrieve the full path of the web application, which can be used to aid other attacks. The information displayed is not useful on its own, and requires another vulnerability to be present for damage to an affected website.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The Addonify – Quick View For WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Full Path Disclosure (FPD) in all versions up to 1.2.16. The vulnerability exists because the plugin includes the mobiledetect library without restricting direct access to its files. Unauthenticated attackers can directly request these files to reveal the server's absolute filesystem path.

MitigationUpdate the plugin to version 1.2.17 or later, which should include the fix. Alternatively, manually protect the mobiledetect files by adding direct-access restrictions in .htaccess or moving the library outside the web root.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm plugin installation and version
    Check the WordPress admin under Plugins > Installed Plugins, or inspect the plugin's main PHP file header for the 'Version' field. Common path: /wp-content/plugins/addonify-quick-view/
    Affected if The installed version is 1.2.16 or lower (all versions up to 1.2.16 are affected)
  2. Locate the mobiledetect library files
    Search the plugin directory for files named 'mobiledetect' or within a 'mobiledetect' folder. Common pattern: /wp-content/plugins/addonify-quick-view/includes/vendor/mobiledetect/
    Affected if The mobiledetect library files exist within the plugin directory and are accessible via web requests
  3. Verify direct access is not blocked
    Attempt to directly access a mobiledetect file (e.g., request the PHP file directly via browser or curl). Also check if .htaccess restrictions exist in the mobiledetect directory to prevent direct access.
    Affected if The mobiledetect PHP files can be requested directly without redirect or 403 error, exposing the server's absolute filesystem path in any error output

A user is affected if the plugin version is 1.2.16 or lower AND the mobiledetect library files are directly accessible via web requests, allowing unauthenticated attackers to obtain the server's absolute path.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation
