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 Flamix: Bitrix24 and Contact Form 7 integrations plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Full Path Disclosure in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.0. 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 Flamix WordPress plugin includes the mobilledetect library without proper access controls, allowing unauthenticated attackers to directly access these files and disclose the full server path. This is a classic Full Path Disclosure vulnerability where the third-party library is exposed to direct HTTP requests.

MitigationAdd .htaccess rules to prevent direct access to the mobiledetect files/directory, or update to a patched version if available. Alternatively, ensure mobiledetect is only loaded through proper PHP includes rather than direct HTTP access.

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. Identify Flamix plugin installation
    Enumerate installed WordPress plugins via the plugins admin interface, wp-cli 'wp plugin list', or by checking the /wp-content/plugins/ directory for folders containing 'flamix' in the name
    Affected if The Flamix plugin is installed and active on the WordPress site
  2. Locate mobiledetect library files
    Search the Flamix plugin directory for a 'mobiledetect' subdirectory or files named 'Mobile_Detect.php', 'mobiledetect.php', or similar; typical paths include /wp-content/plugins/flamix/mobiledetect/ or nested paths within the plugin structure
    Affected if The mobilledetect library files exist within the Flamix plugin directory
  3. Test direct HTTP access to mobiledetect endpoints
    Send HTTP GET requests to potential mobiledetect file URLs such as /wp-content/plugins/flamix/mobiledetect/Mobile_Detect.php, /wp-content/plugins/flamix/libs/mobiledetect/mobiledetect.php, or similar URL patterns and examine the response for path disclosure or file content
    Affected if Direct HTTP requests to mobiledetect files return successful responses containing PHP code, error messages, or server path information

If the Flamix plugin is present and its mobilledetect library files are directly accessible via HTTP requests, exposing server paths or file contents, the environment is vulnerable to CVE-2024-6568
