CVE-2025-15226
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 · uneditedWMPro developed by Sunnet has a Arbitrary File Upload vulnerability, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to upload and execute web shell backdoors, thereby enabling arbitrary code execution on the server.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify WMPro versionLocate the WMPro installation and check its version information. This is typically found in the application itself, in an about page, configuration file, or the main executable/library files. Compare the installed version number against the affected range: 5.0 through 5.2 inclusive.Affected if The installed version is 5.0, 5.1, or 5.2
-
Confirm file upload feature is accessibleIdentify whether the file upload functionality is enabled and exposed. This typically involves checking if upload-related endpoints (often containing terms like 'upload', 'file', or 'attach' in the URL path) are accessible on the web server hosting WMPro.Affected if The file upload endpoint is reachable without requiring authentication or special privileges
-
Check for unauthorized uploaded filesInspect directories where uploaded files are stored (commonly within the web root or application data directories). Look for suspicious file types such as .php, .asp, .jsp, .exe, or other executable extensions that should not be present.Affected if Unexpected script or executable files exist in upload directories, especially if they were not intentionally placed there by administrators
-
Verify upload restrictions are disabled or weakReview application configuration or access logs to determine if any restrictions on file uploads are in place. Check for lack of file extension allowlisting, MIME-type validation, or content inspection on upload requests.Affected if No file type restrictions, extension validation, or content validation is enforced on the upload functionality
You are affected if WMPro version 5.0-5.2 is installed and the unauthenticated file upload feature is exposed and accessible without restrictions.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataDisable or restrict the file upload functionality until a patch is available. If upload functionality is required, implement strict allowlist-based file extension validation, MIME-type verification, content inspection, filename sanitization, store files outside the web root, and ensure uploaded files have no execute permissions.
